Our Leaders
Faith Bible Church is led and shepherded (Acts 20:28; 1 Pet. 5:1-4) by a plurality of biblically qualified elders (1 Tim. 3:1-7; Titus 1:5-9) who serve the church in unity in order to nurture the spiritual good of the flock for the glory of Christ, who is the Head.
At FBC, biblically qualified deacons (1 Tim. 3:8-13) serve under the oversight of the elders to free them up (for their teaching and shepherding responsibilites) in a variety of helpful areas.
