Vanessa and I were married in 2017, a few years after being introduced by mutual friends from the church. I am thankful for God’s gift in Vanessa and she has been a gracious partner in my sanctification. By God’s grace our family is growing and we are excited to see what He has in store for us.

Vanessa grew up in London and began attending Redemption in 2013 after she finished her education in Waterloo. I moved from Sarnia to London in 2010 for university and have been attending Redemption since then. We have been blessed by the consistent gospel centered messages, faithfulness to scripture, and the church’s mission to make disciples.

I am a mechanical engineer for a company here in London that manufactures water disinfection equipment. Throughout university I spent the summer months working at Muskoka Bible Centre as the youth ministry director, and I am thankful for how God worked in and through me while I was there.

God’s sure promise to lead us through the many twists and turns of life has been a familiar source of comfort throughout my life. Psalm 73:23-24 “Nevertheless, I am continually with you; you hold my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will receive me to glory.”
