Cummins Hero Spotlight: Pastor Robert Wiggins

When not delivering sermons, Pastor Wiggins can be found nurturing one of his many community betterment efforts. As his nominator put it, Pastor Wiggins teaches children how to be good stewards and good citizens.

Pastor Wiggins engages the children of his congregation in learning how to garden, raise animals and, most importantly, how to assist the underserved in their communities. Among his many community initiatives, he spearheaded an effort called “Blessings in a Backpack” to help provide meals for local students. He also runs an 1,800 square foot nonprofit backyard farm, growing 53 different varieties of vegetables to provide fresh, organic produce at very low or no cost to families in need. 

Pastor Wiggins has devoted his time, energy and life to the community, providing not only accessible, low-cost food, but also gardening classes and counseling to those who need it. He’s an inspiration to his parishioners and the community at large, inspiring them to, “do more, love deeper, serve longer, and do so with a passion for helping others.”
