Don George

Pastoral Resident

Don and Alyssa came to faith in Christ in 2017 at FCBC. 


Upon committing his life to Christ, Don also committed himself to church membership and one-on-one discipleship. Don’s character and gifts were recognized by the pastors and confirmed by the church membership in calling Don to be an elder. Don has served as an elder since January 2020.


God laid on Don’s heart to consider full-time ministry as a church planter. To prepare for church planting, Don has enrolled in Grimke University and joined the New England Urban Church Planting team. Don is developing his shepherding skills by serving as a pastoral resident at FCBC for 2022-2023. His next steps include relocating to Providence, RI, apprenticing as a church planter in an urban church in Rhode Island, and finishing seminary.


Don and Alyssa have three adult children and a High School Senior. During their free time, the George family enjoys fishing, kayaking and relaxing at their home in Center Barnstead.
