Tom Couric : Sr. Pastor, Teaching

Teaching Pastor

Martha and I have been serving at Fellowship since 1993. We have been married for over thirty-three years. Wow! Martha teaches Kindergarten at Kansas City Christian school. She enjoys music, especially piano, reading, cooking, quilting and scrapbooking.

When I have a little time off, I keep busy with various “honey do’s” around our house, reading and exercising. I graduated from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Ft. Worth, TX in 1984 (M.Div) and 1993 (Ph.D in New Testament).

We have three adult children. Our oldest daughter, Rachel lives in Chiang Rai, Thailand and teaches English at a university and a language school while engaged in mission activities. Our son, Nathan is an Ensign in the US Navy serving on the USS Paul Hamilton, stationed in Pearl Harbor, HI.  He is a Certified Flight Instructor and eventually, he wants to fly for missionary or humanitarian aviation, maybe in Africa.  Our younger daughter, Joanna, is engaged to Yohann Kim.  They will be married July 7 and live in South Korea.

Good thing we love to travel! We want our love for Christ to be the passion of our lives.

Mike Jones : Missions Pastor

Missions Pastor

Our family joined Fellowship Baptist in 1993. We soon became involved in the Missions Ministry. In 1999 I became the Missions Pastor at Fellowship. We have been blessed to see volunteer and long-term missionaries serve from FBC on every continent except Antarctica…

Our vision is to see every member of FBC mobilized and equipped to be part of God’s plan to make disciples from among every nation beginning in our own community.

My wife Karen and I are empty nesters. We have three children who were home educated. Amy and Michael work in the Kansas City area. Laura and her husband David are completing a graduate degree program at Leads University and will begin new employment opportunities in London later this year.

In addition to the missions ministry responsibilities, I also work for IBM. I have degrees in Computer Science, Business Management and Theology. As time permits, Karen and I enjoy traveling and reading.

Steve Roe : Life Groups and Prayer Pastor

LIFE Groups and Prayer Pastor

My wife Judy and I have been married over 40 years. We joined FBC in 1994. We felt called to serve the body immediately. I retired in 1998 from a national company and within 2 weeks I was in Kenya on mission. We fell in love with the idea of coming along side others to further the Kingdom. FBC wants people to know that we put a high priority on Prayer. I was called to be the Pastor of Prayer in 2000. My call is to teach, encourage and exhort people to pray.  In 2009, responsibilities for our LIFE Groups was added to my ministry.  Through our LIFE Groups we want to look and live like God’s original church in Acts.
