Guest Speakers

Jim and Bea Fishback LTC, USA, (Retired)
Military Ministry of CCC

Jim is a graduate from West Point (1974) and served in the Armor and Quartermaster branches until he retired in 1994.

After retiring from the military, Jim and Bea, having a heart for the military and especially military families, were led to enter full time Christian ministry with Family Life, part of Campus Crusade for Christ ministry.

Both Jim and Bea are graduates of Agape International Training and Jim is a graduate of Dallas Theological Seminary and an ordained minister. They are part of the international speaker team of Family Life and have been with the Military Ministry of CCC since 1998 when they moved to the United Kingdom to help build solid military families.

While on active duty they experienced the healing power of God in their marriage and have since worked to help others open up to the power of His grace and build strong marriages and families. Both are published authors of materials for personal and family growth for a closer walk with God.

We joyously and warmly welcome Jim and Bea to lead us this year for a special time of growth in our relationship with our Lord, ourselves, and each other. JOIN US FOR A BLESSING!
