Timothy J. Froese is a third generation Apostolic Pentecostal minister. He felt his call to preach at a young age of 13. However, it was much later in life that he began to pursue fulfilling his calling.

After his marriage to Patricia J. (Gillison) Froese, he and his wife began their ministry at the Calvary United Pentecostal Church in Clinton, Illinois, pastored by his father, Rev. Paul G. Froese. They worked in the Sunday School Department, was Youth Directors, and Service Leaders.

In 2005, Rev. Froese accepted a position as Youth Pastor in Villa Grove, Illinois. Then in 2008 they relocated and began attending the First Apostolic Church of Arthur. It was during this time that Rev. Froese completed the requirements to become a licensed minister of the United Pentecostal Church International. He was licensed on October 9, 2014.

On February 23, 2013, he was elected Assistant Pastor at the First Apostolic Church of Arthur, Illinois under the pastorate of Rev. Gawain Bevis. He held that position until the retirement of Rev. Bevis in 2017.

Rev. Timothy J. Froese was then elected as pastor on January 13, 2018. He enjoys ministering to the people of FAC and looks forward to revival for many years to come.
