Our Pastors

Rob and Toni Gore reside in McKinney, Texas with their two children Natalie and Jonathan.

Since they met in February 1981, Rob and Toni have been actively reaching out to people with the message of Jesus Christ. Both grew up in the Word of God at Lakewood Church under Pastor John Osteen. Married in 1983, Rob and Toni have worked together as worship leaders, teachers, and helpers in various evangelical outreaches. It is their sincere desire to reach people that do not know the love of Jesus, and to see believers discover who they are in Christ Jesus; teaching them how to live a victorious life without fear in their covenant rights and privileges.

In May 2000, while Rob and Toni were attending Eagle Mountain International Church in Fort Worth, the Holy Spirit directed them to begin teaching the Word of God in their home. This home group and it's fine members became the foundation for Faith Fellowship Church.

From May 2000 until January 2002 Rob and Toni attended New Life Family Fellowship in Caddo Mills under Pastor Butch Bruton. Pastor Butch graciously agreed to license Rob as a minister of the Gospel and continues to be a significant blessing and influence to Rob and Toni.

The music ministry of Rob and Toni Gore has blessed listeners for many years. With the release of their first CD entitled "Seed for the Sower", Rob and Toni are formally reaching out beyond the local church and seeking to reach as many people as possible with the Word of God.

As pastors of Faith Fellowship Church, Rob and Toni are obedient to each step of faith by the leading of the Holy Spirit. The Faith Fellowship family is thankful for all of the wonderful things that the Lord has already done through this new ministry and are eagerly looking forward to the wonderful blessings they know are in store for everyone that will seek God!
