The Rev. Bob Baril is an Ordained Assemblies of God minister. He served as pastor of First Assembly of God of Framingham, Massachusetts for twenty-three years. He writes The Blog of Bob Baril and describes himself as unconventional. Some of Bob's greatest joys include visiting Cape Cod and the Missouri Ozarks, eating Chinese food, and watching the New England Patriots. Bob is happiest, though, when he's teaching a Bible class or guest speaking at a church's Sunday morning service. He's a graduate of Stonehill College in Easton, Massachusetts and Evangel University in Springfield, Missouri. Bob and his wife, Mary Ann, have three grown children and live in the Boston area.
