After graduating from Daniel Boone Area High School in 1979, Richie Bowden threw himself right into work.
Beginning in Mr. Bowden's early childhood, he would help out in his father’s auto mechanic garage. It was in these moments that Mr. Bowden’s father instilled in him the work ethic that he possesses today.
That way of life stuck with Mr. Bowden. At times, he worked two full-time jobs and another on the weekends, working up to 20 hours a day. Mr. Bowden described it as an “addiction” to making money; working was his fulfillment.
But then, one day, that changed. “God was calling me that I had to go into the community.” At first he was reluctant, but soon he realized: “How much is enough?”
Now, Mr. Bowden is profoundly involved in various community services. Using expertise crafted through decades of work, he helps fix and renovate houses with Mission Trip Birdsboro and Restoring Hope of Berks County. Mission Trip Birdsboro has grown to encompass seven different partnership organizations. Anyone can volunteer to help out, and there is even a prominent youth presence. 🔨
He also helps feed those in need with Hopewell Love Community Services and sings with Threefold Blessings, a traveling praise and worship team where he has used his gifts to honor God almost every Sunday.
Mr. Bowden said his heart was never in school, but it is evident that he possesses the exact skills that schools are designed to teach. Grades alone cannot change the world, but the impact Mr. Bowden has on the community certainly can.
Mr. Bowden also had a few words of advice for current high school students, “Stick with it.”
