Eric Hiel
Buffalo Student (RS) Director
My name is Eric Hiel, and I joined Riverside in November 2023. A few things about me: I strive daily to be a Christ-centered man of faith who loves God, loves others, and passionately follows God's calling. I lead the student ministry in Buffalo.
At home, I have an amazing wife named Jaycee, and together we have four cats and a dog. Outside of church, you might find me on the lake catching big bass, at the skatepark performing epic tricks and sharing God's love, or enjoying a delicious cup of coffee.
