Supporting FBS through Speaking Engagements

Brent and Janet Aucoin

Brent and Janet have been married since 1994 and have two adult children. The Aucoins consider it a privilege to be able to share God’s truth with God’s people. As their schedules permit, they travel to other churches for a variety of speaking engagements individually and as a couple.

As a couple, they currently have a two-day conference available on marriage and another on parenting.

Each also speaks on a variety of topics individually. Please contact them for more details. They can discuss with you how to best serve your particular need.

Speaker Fees

Faith Bible Seminary has two different degree programs, a Master of Arts in Biblical Counseling and a Master of Divinity degree for future pastors. The MDiv program is unique and is funded primarily by outside support, allowing students to graduate debt free and with 3 years of ministry experience.

Brent and Janet seek to use their speaking opportunities to help support the ministry of FBS.
