Rev. Tracy Gruggett - 

     Tracy has been a minister for seven years. Ordained in the Reformed Church in the United States in 2001, he is a graduate of Westminster Seminary in California, where he earned a Masters of Divinity. Prior to this he earned an MA in History. His first pastorate was Covenant Reformed Church of Watertown, South Dakota, and Grace Reformed Church here in Bakersfield is his second charge.

      Tracy grew up in Bakersfield and was converted to Christ in 1989 while serving his last year in the Marine Corps. In short time the Lord brought him to Reformed convictions, and he became a member of Grace Reformed Church in 1990. He left Bakersfield in 1995 to marry his bride to be, Michelle. And now he has returned to Bakersfield as the minister of the church where he was instructed in the Reformed Faith. He and Michelle have four children.
