Troy Dearborn - Lead Pastor

Troy was born and raised right here in St. Pierre Jolys. He has a Master of Divinity in Biblical Languages (he likes Greek more than Hebrew, sorry Isaac), and before pastoring Troy spent over 10 years as a local missionary with Youth For Christ. Troy is passionate about studying and teaching the Word of God, especially to those who are discovering it for the first time. He is married to his wife Alice from England. Together they have a young daughter Iris and son Euan, and they love camping and canoeing as a family, especially in the remote Canadian wilderness. He also loves playing violin and guitar in his free time.

Denver Kroeker -

Community Life Pastor

Before pastoring, Denver spent 10 years as a missionary with TEAM, including serving overseas in Chad with his family, and has also taught numerous missions courses as an adjunct professor for Nipawin Bible College. After returning to St. Pierre, Denver’s calling to evangelism and heart for leading people to Jesus persisted, leading him to pastor the Bible Fellowship Church. Denver has since served the church for 15 years and has recently transitioned into a pastoral care role. Not only is Denver great at building up people, but he is also a journeyman carpenter and has enjoyed witnessing for Jesus while working in the construction industry. He is married to his wife Elvera and together they have 3 married children and 7 grandchildren.

Bev Dueck - Children’s Director

Bev has an incredible gift for seeing the potential in every young person. She has a passion to see kids active in their spiritual gifts and growing closer to Jesus. A teacher at heart, Bev is a gifted communicator and mentor, and loves seeing others find healing and wholeness. Her creativity and ability to make the Scriptures come alive is a huge gift to our church. When Bev is not tending to the hearts and souls of young people, you can find her tending her garden with a good cup of coffee in hand. Most of all Bev loves spending time with her husband Mel and her 8 grandchildren.

Isaac Ginter - Youth Pastor

Isaac has his Master’s Degree in Christian Studies (Old Testament track) from McMaster Divinity College and is passionate about studying the Scriptures with others. He is also Adjunct Faculty at the Providence University Downtown campus where he teaches Biblical Studies. Isaac has a passion for the Old Testament, but what’s really Old Testament is his hair style. He also knows Hebrew is actually better than Greek (sorry Troy), and together with his wife Charisma, they have a young daughter Alethea. They love playing board games with friends, and have at least 40 plants in their apartment.
