Meet Our Pastor
Kevin and Shellie Rees, and their five young children, joined the already vibrant ministry of Fellowship Bible Church in September 2008 from their time serving with Greater Europe Mission (2003-2008) as church planters in central Italy (2006-2007).
Kevin has been involved in full-time pastoral ministry since 1994 and has years of experience in all aspects of local church life from ministry to students and children to administration in the front office, from being associate pastor on a multiple-staffed church in the urban sprawl to a single-staffed senior pastor in the rural expanses, to a church planter on the mission field. He was formally trained for the ministry at Washington Bible College (B.A., 1995) and Capital Bible Seminary (M.A., 1997, M.Div., 1998), while working in local churches.
The Rees family is passionate about establishing and strengthening the local church, but they also enjoy the outdoors, traveling, reading, and finding creative ways to spend time together as a family. Shellie is a biologist at heart, and by training. Kevin enjoys to pick up the guitar or the camera from time to time. The children like sports, hiking, music, computers, and finding out which video games their father cannot seem to master.

Meet Our Elders
The board of elders is the leadership hub of the church. They collectively serve the congregation in three general areas of leadership: the ministry of prayer, the ministry of the Word (Acts 6:4), and the ministry of spiritual leadership (1 Peter 5:2-3) which includes but is not limited to setting direction, appointing other ministry leaders as needed, monitoring the overall spiritual health of the people, and if necessary navigating through conflict and/or dissension within the congregation.
