Pastor Jeremy Higgins served in full time ministry at Calvary Chapel Tri City in Tempe, Arizona since 1995.  During the time there he was the Pastor of the High School Youth Ministry for 7 years.  Eventually he was asked to take the position of Assistant Pastor and spent the next 7 years serving the flock in that capacity.  As the Assistant Pastor, Jeremy headed up the Men’s Ministry as well as doing Marital and Pre Marital counseling for the Church body.  Jeremy was also the Church Administrator for 12 of the 14 years he was at Calvary Chapel Tri City overseeing the day to day business of the Church.

Jeremy and his wife, Brooke, have been married since September 24, 1999 and are blessed with two incredible sons.  God brought them together with a common goal, get the “Good News” of Jesus Christ out to as many people as possible.  Brooke was serving God long before they met and eventually married and has a special calling to teach Purity to the young ladies of the Church body.  Brooke has written and published “A Ladies Guide To Purity” in both a Teachers Edition and Student Edition.  She has taught groups, small and large, as well as young and old, about the wonderful gift God has for those who wait upon Him.  Brooke's Ministry also shines a light of hope for those who have made mistakes as we know our Lord's mercies are new every morning!

Over the past 10 years Jeremy has been assisting Churches from all over the Country to arrange Biblical tours of israel.  He has personally traveled to Israel over a dozen times in both Mission and Tour capacities.  He has also been involved in various other Mission field operations throughout Mexico as well.  

Before joining the staff of Calvary Chapel Tri City Jeremy studied Business at Mesa Community College less than a mile from the Church.  After completing the course schedule he joined the staff at Calvary Chapel Tri City and enrolled in the School of Ministry offered there, completing the requirements in 2007. Jeremy went on to obtain a Bachelor's of  Biblical Theology degree from the Maranatha International Bible College which was an extension campus of the CCBC in Murrietta, California.

Since 2006 Jeremy and his wife Brooke have been praying for the Lord to lead them to an area of the Country that needed to hear the Word of God.  In January of 2009 Jeremy, Brooke and their sons Devon and Owen went to Cedar Rapids where God made it clear they were called to plant a new work for Jesus Christ.  By March of 2009 they had bought a home in Cedar Rapids quickly followed by the Church property purchase.  Services began at Calvary Chapel in Cedar Rapids on August 02, 2009 and the body has been growing ever since.  We invite you to come by and be a part of the work the Lord is doing here.
