Elder
Scott Bates

Scott’s time as an elder at NEFC has allowed him to walk alongside people to pray with them and open up God’s Word, and he treasures seeing God’s mercy and grace at work, as truths are lived out and the fruit of their love for Him becomes evident. Being an elder has driven Scott to be in God’s Word more and depend upon Him more. Scott knows that life is all about God’s glory, not his own, and he seeks to share the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ with those God has placed in his life.

Scptt works as a Senior Quality Manager. Along with his wife, Nancy, and their special needs adult son, they breed Katahdin sheep on their hobby farm where they daily enjoy the beauty of God’s creation.
