Pastor Bob Simpson began his ministry at Evans UMC on July 1, 2020. Bob responded to God's call to vocational ministry in the late 90's. Following God's leading, he  pursued and earned a Master of Divinity degree from the Iliff School of Theology in 2003. Prior to his ministry at Evans UMC, Bob served four different congregations of the United Methodist Church Mountain Sky Conference. The Heart of Bob's ministry is to discover and share the many ways that Jesus Christ is relevant to the deepest needs of all people. He also has a passion for ministry with seniors and he and his wife, Jill, have been active in planning and leading ministry at several senior living communities. Bob and Jill have four children who are now young adults as well as three rescue dogs. Besides reading and journaling, Bob is renewed through playing guitar, skiing, hiking, and bike riding.
