Pastor
Deacons
Mark Roberson
Both Mark and his wife Carole have multi-generational roots as Fallonites. They were married in 1979 in what was was then First Baptist Church. After First Baptist merged with Grace Christian fellowship to become Parkside Bible Fellowship, Mark's title changed from trustee to deacon where he continues to exercise his spiritual gift of helps by overseeing the sound room (audio/visual) and maintenance of the church building. By God's blessing and grace, Mark and Carole's joy aligns with 3 John 4, "I have no greater joy than this, to hear my children walking in the truth," as their children and spouses purpose to live for and serve our Lord Jesus Christ. It is now a great joy and privilege for them to invest in the lives of their 7 grandchildren.
Andy Allen
Andy has always been one who desires to help those around him, and after his conversion to becoming a Christian, he is always seeking to know more of the Lord, doctrinally but also practically, in how to serve his kingdom. He has been married to his wife, Brook, since 2013 and has been blessed with 3 children. He has a full-time job as an owner/operator of a specialty auto repair shop in Fallon. A career that he started doing in 1994 while still in high school. He cherishes spending time with his family and also enjoys hunting, fishing, and pretty much anything sports!
