Freida Shultz was born in Grangeville, Idaho, and was raised in the state of Washington. She attended Upper Columbia Academy in Spangle, Washington where she graduated in 1952. In December of1952 she married Jim Shultz and moved to Pendleton, Oregon and from there to California. After becoming the mother of 6 children she went back to school and received her nursing degree in 1967 from Ventura, California. She has 10 grandchildren.

In the early 1980's her husband entered the ministry of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Sidney, Nebraska. It was during that time that Freda began to develop her love for giving Bible studies and spreading the gospel of Jesus.

In 1991 they were pastoring in Fairbanks, Alaska. It was at that time that Jim developed a serious heart condition which took his life. Freida then accepted a position to go to Lancaster, Ohio to work as a Bible worker half-time and as a nurse half-time. Through a series of miraculous events she was able to obtain two sets of the Kenneth Cox video Bible tapes. She used those in her work in Lancaster. Her work with the tapes was so successful that Pastor Cox began to request that she do some training for him for the tape ministry.

She became a part of the team in about the year 2000. She began to travel as a seminar instructor preparing the churches to do the work of the tape ministry in preparation for a rich harvest when Pastor Cox would come for a crusade.

Freida continues her work in the Lancaster, Ohio church where she has had the joy of seeing a new church built, many people baptized, a church school started and a thriving thrift store going to help in supporting the school. In her spare time she manages the thrift store. She still has a large number of Bible studies going which is still her first love.

She is excited to be a part of the team where she can help spread the gospel of Jesus across the nation. She hopes to work for the Lord until He comes.
