Roger Archer was born in Lemoore, California in 1965, and grew up in Northern Idaho. An athletic scholarship led him to the State of Missouri where he stayed for two years. Roger pursued the call to ministry and finished his degree in Psychology and Pastoral Ministries at Northwest Bible College in Kirkland, Washington. This was also the place he met the girl of this dreams and upon graduation, Roger and Tina married. Roger served as worship and youth pastor before becoming Senior Pastor at Living Way Foursquare Church in Seattle. After eight years of leading in Seattle, the Lord led Roger and Tina to Puyallup in February of 1998 where they pioneered our church with four other families. The Archers are blessed with three children: Adrienne, Britney and Jacob.

ABOUT THE UG

Foursquare United Generation is a ministry of Puyallup Foursquare Church in Puyallup, Washington. We are a collaboration of young people ages 12-30 that believe our generation can and will live for Christ. By the vision of our generational pastors, Chad and Julia Veach, and the efforts of hundreds of leaders and volunteers, we strive to reach the 25,000 young people in our area for Jesus. We exist for the purpose to love God and love people and see our generation move to change our world.

We are real, we are transparent and we like to have fun. We believe the kingdom advances through worship, prayer and the move of the Holy Spirit. We value daily devotions and the word of God as our guide and answer to all things. We are committed to evangelism and excellence in all that we do. We meet in 242 groups(small groups) throughout the week and all together on Thursday (UGYP) and Sunday (J. High and Foursquare High School) nights in respective age groups to praise our God. Together, we are Foursquare United Generation.
