Steve and his wife Deb moved to Ossipee NH from Massachusetts in 2014, started attending FCCO a couple of months later, and becoming members soon thereafter. Before meeting each other, Steve and Deb accepted Christ as their Lord and Redeemer around August 1979. They met at a Bible study in June 1989 and married five months later. They have two grown daughters, Rebekah (Johnson City TN) and Melissa (Sterling MA), and four grandchildren. A Navy veteran, Steve has worked as a technical writer for more than 25 years. Deb devotes herself to Christian ministries, home, and her gardens. The Lord has used Steve’s gifts of pastoring, wisdom, discernment, and prophecy through serving at FCCO in Leadership Council, Deacon of Connecting (Membership), Leadership Structure Study & Communications Teams, Growth Group leader, Safety & Security Team, Conquer Series leader, Men’s Ministry, Welcome Desk, Caring Hands, and mentoring. Steve and Deb’s marriage verse has been Jeremiah 29:11 and Steve’s heart desire is to someday hear from his Precious Lord, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” (Mt. 25/Luke 19). Steve and Deb enjoy the outdoors, snowshoeing, classic movies, and board games.
