Meet Our Interim Designee Minister

Rev. Dr. John Patrick Fairless

Rev. Dr. John Patrick Fairless, “Pastor John”, hails from Tennessee, but has served Florida churches for 20 years. He holds a Master of Theological Studies, and received his doctorate from Princeton Theological Seminary. 

Pastor John served as our Interim Minister three years ago. During the height of COVID, he helped VUCC upgrade their technology to better serve the congregation.

He returns to us after serving two other churches as interim. His wife, Sheila will join him here.
