Ed has sensed a clear call of God to this new ministry assignment.
With a deep passion to see churches unite around a clear vision he has been working diligently to facilitate collaboration, provide
accountability and encourage blessing. Although our churches
are very unique and scattered across a vast province, Ed believes
strongly that God is doing a new work among these churches and
that there is a very special and unique future ahead. As there is
a new focus on healthy aligning of passion and compassion Ed
believes we will see many people won for Jesus in Ontario.
Ed gained a BRS from MBBC, a BA from the University of
Winnipeg, and an MDiv from MBBS when it was still situated in
sunny California. Ed strives to be a life long learner and has taken
many seminars and training events. Most recently he has been
certified as a COACH.
