Pastor Les Sutherland
Senior Pastor
Les Sutherland has pastored Faith Bible
Fellowship Church since its founding in the
1980's. Due to his future wife's willingness to
share the Gospel (her first witnessing project
in years past), Les received Christ on August
26, 1970.
Pastor Les attended and later graduated from
Penn State University with a degree in
Mechanical Engineering in 1972. While spending
several years as a design engineer at Ford Motor
Company (1972-1975), Les also served in the U.S.
Army Reserves (1972-1977). In 1975, Les expanded
his education at Trinity Divinity School through
1979 in pursuit of his Masters of Divinity
degree. After graduation, he served as interim
pastor at Libertyville Evangelical Free Church
and as associate pastor at Cuyahoga Falls
Baptist Church (in the greater Akron area). From
there, he was called to serve as pastor of Faith
Bible Fellowship and has faithfully served there
since. Also, Pastor Les has taught Moody Evening
School in the local area as well since 1981.
Pastor Les and his wife Linda have four sons:
Jeffrey, Christopher, Joshua, and Timothy. He
also currently serves as a member of the Elder
board at FBF.
