Elders – West Suffolk Baptist Church

Elders – West Suffolk Baptist Church

West Suffolk Baptist Church is currently led by three Elders, , Mike Prince, Ben Scofield, and Scott Thomas.  Brief biographies of each are below.

Pastor Ben Scofield

Born in Ocala, Florida in 1948, Pastor Scofield came to the faith late in his career as a Marine Corps Officer. After earning a Bachelor of Arts Degree in History from the University of Georgia (’82), he served in a variety of combat arms related billets, retiring as the Intelligence Officer (G-2) for the Third Marine Division in 1992. He earned a Master of Arts Degree from Tabernacle Baptist Theological Seminary (’94) and completed his Master of Divinity Degree at Central Baptist Theological Seminary (’02). Since 1995, he has pastored at the same church, leading its transition, along with his own, to fully embrace the reformed faith and the doctrines of grace.

Pastor Scofield and his wife Charlene were married in 1970 and have two grown children. Their daughter Jennifer is a pastor’s wife in North Carolina, and their son Collier is a Marine stationed in California. They have three grandchildren and a cocker spaniel, who warm their hearts.
