LEADERSHIP

Pastor Steve is the Senior Pastor at FBC. Born and educated in Liverpool, Steve was converted in his teens and trained at what is now the London School of Theology. There he met Brenda, his wife of over forty years, who passed away in 2017. He has two married children, Paul and Ruth, and four grandchildren, aged between nine and twenty-four.

He had held four pastorates in the UK before serving for some twenty years as Principal of Moorlands College, which trains people for Christian service in the UK and overseas. He has spoken at conferences and conventions around the world, many linked to the UK Keswick Convention, of which he was a Trustee and speaker for some two decades.

He holds a PhD degree in theology and is the author, contributor and editor of over twenty books. A keen sportsman, he hates gardening and has an irrational attachment to Everton Soccer Club!

Pastor Stephen is the Assistant Pastor at FBC. Born and raised in Cayman Brac, he moved to Grand Cayman after high school and began attending FBC. He later moved to Florida to complete his bachelor’s degree and obtain his CPA qualification before returning to Cayman to work for several years in public accounting. Having felt the call towards more full-time vocational ministry after serving in various lay roles at FBC over several years, Stephen joined the staff at FBC for a couple of years as Director of Youth, Missions, and Men’s Discipleship.

In time, Stephen decided to follow God’s lead by pursuing an M.Div in Biblical Counseling at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, North Carolina. It was there that he met his wife, Sarah, with whom he recently celebrated 10 years of marriage. Together they have one daughter, Kate. After completing his Counseling program, Stephen and Sarah returned to Grand Cayman where he worked for several years as a CFO and served as a lay elder at FBC. In March 2022, Stephen once again followed God’s lead by returning to serve on staff at FBC as Assistant Pastor.

He has a passion for helping people find hope, joy, and healing through their personal walk with God. A life-long fisherman, he loves being on, near, or under the water! Travel and experiencing God’s creation with his family ranks as some of his favorite moments.

Pastor Dave was born in Havana, Cuba.  He is the ever-grateful husband to Kathy and amazed father of Jonathan. He is also now Grandfather to sweet little Josh.  He has served as a Pastor of Worship since 1983 in churches in Los Angeles.  He has joyfully served this body since 2001.  In another life, he was an arranger/conductor/musician in L.A. for a bunch of stuff.  The passion of his life is to help people connect with God – right now through worship.  In his spare time, he enjoys rebuilding islands after hurricanes and helping lead churches to a Biblical model of leadership.  Diving with God’s underwater creatures ranks a close second.
