What I do?

I get the wonderful opportunity to be involved in various ministries here at Coaldale MB, but my main responsibility is overseeing the youth ministry. It’s so important for teenagers to know that they are loved and valued by adults other than their parents, and I love that I get to help make that happen. With the help of the youth ministry volunteer team, I have the privilege of doing life alongside our students, teaching Biblical truth, and discipling them in their relationships with God.

How long have I been at CMBC?

My wife and I started coming here in October of 2019. I began serving in the youth and worship ministries as a volunteer and joined the staff team in August 2020. I’m very grateful to be a part of this community at Coaldale MB, and look forward to seeing how God leads me in this role.

A few of my favourite things are:

Spending time with my wife and our two dogs, camping, barbecuing, taking my motorcycle to the mountains, playing music, and learning new things.
