Rev. Roy Frye, M.Min.

"I do not believe you can effectively serve others unless you are willing to accept everyone where they are, as they are, and without judging. For this reason, I am blessed with the opportunity to serve people from many different faiths and traditions." Rev. Roy Frye is the director of Service Ministries, a ministry of the Christian Congregation. He was ordained in 1993 by the Christian Congregation (a denomination dating to 1887) following graduation from Trinity Evangelical Seminary. Rev. Frye chose to earn a Master of Ministry degree, a degree not typical of most ministers. "I wanted to focus on serving people...and I felt this course of study would help accomplish that goal." While serving as a pastor in Oswego, Illinois, Rev. Frye was given an opportunity to serve as a chaplain in a medical center - where he continues to serve. Service Ministries' mission to serve people is accomplished without preference to personal religious beliefs.
