Featured Staff Member
Rev. Rob Fuquay
Rob Fuquay was appointed to serve as St. Luke's fifth senior pastor in its history effective September 1, 2011. Prior to that, he served as Senior Pastor of Williamson’s Chapel United Methodist Church in Mooresville, NC.
The attributes that best describe Rob as a pastor are strong preaching, leadership development and visioning. He has expressed a deep desire to lead a church like St. Luke’s where more progressive views are embraced and encouraged, with members who care about the needs of all those around them and who want to connect others to the body of Christ. "I desire a church that welcomes everyone and allows God to work with them where they are. As I study Jesus I see someone who sought to show grace to all people . . . and I want to be a part of a church that models that . . . a church that cares about reaching beyond its own community and impacting the world with hope.” While Rob has admitted to having a silly side, he takes worship and preaching very seriously, spending the first hours of his day focusing on those tasks.
He graduated from Pfeiffer University in 1984 with a B.A. in Religion, and from Emory University, Candler School of Theology in 1987 with an M.Div. He is a Duke basketball fan, but offers that he is also a huge fan of the Cincinnati Reds. Rob and his wife, Susan, have three daughters: Julie, Sarah and Anna.
