Leadership

Council of Ten

The “Council of Ten” are all pastors and Christian leaders who are elected to represent and serve the Sunshine Baptist Fellowship. The Council meets together throughout the year, in addition to overseeing our annual conference, retreats, workshops, and other state events. These men all are busy with ministries of their own, but they generously give of their time and effort for the benefit of our state fellowship.

If you would like to contact any of the council members, please follow the links below to find updated contact information on their own church websites.
