Read about Bob Flemming

Bob has over 30 years of pastoral ministry experience and served as the Regional Director of our FEB Central churches (298 churches) from 2010 to 2020.  He currently serves our region of churches as the Director of Peacemaking and Integration.

He assists churches in their ministry effectiveness by utilizing such tools as Consultations, Intentional Interim training/placing, advising with pastors and boards over a variety of subjects.  Other responsibilities include fund raising and processing new churches who are interested in joining the Fellowship. Much of his time is spent encouraging individual pastors and church staff.

Bob counts it a privilege to serve the church, leaning on the Lord’s promise, “I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.”

Bob is married to Rhonda, and together they have two married daughters and three grandchildren.
