Bill Goodrich served three years in the United States Army as a combat engineer. He worked for Alcoa in Quality Control for 13 years, during which time he was born again. At the age of 26, Bill began visiting in local nursing homes to bring comfort to those who were lonely. This blossomed into a desire for full-time ministry. After earning a BD from Springs of Life College, he served part time as an associate pastor. In 1994, Bill took a leap of faith and dove in to full-time service, founding God Cares Ministry. Since that time, he has achieved his Master of Ministry, authored several books and resources to train and equip nursing home missionaries, and developed a nursing home ministry training program and a Bible study curriculum for seniors. Over the years Bill has trained thousands of missionaries to serve in this mission field. He serves as President and Executive Director of God Cares Ministry and continues to minister in the way he loves most – in several local nursing homes.
