Martin Goode

When I ventured across the country from the comforts of my family home to attend Bible College as a green 17-year-old, I could never have anticipated the faith-adventures God had in store for me—which have now included a brief stint in pastoral ministry in my then-home-church in Bridgewater Nova Scotia, to 12 years as an Associate Pastor in downtown Peoples Church of Montreal, to now having served over 20 years here at Grace Gospel Church.  I love our church as well as our denominational family, the Associated Gospel Churches.   My wife Rebecca and I raised our four children here, and have seen them venture into their chosen paths of education and career. Family life (now grown by two daughters-in-law, a granddaughter, and two grand-dogs!) brings many smiles and prayers for the extension of our faith to a new generation; and it has kept our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ grounded and growing.

Terry Miller

Terry has been involved in youth ministry for the last 25 years. His creativity and love of Jesus and the Scriptures brings a unique dynamic to the youth ministry at Grace Gospel Church. He loves photography, videography, sports, his tools, the youth of our church and community and his family (but not in that order). He loves to see students come to know Jesus and grow in their relationship with God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit!

If you have any questions about the youth ministry call the church or email Pastor Terry, he would love to speak with you.

James Ball

James is passionate about outreach and evangelism and desires to see the saving message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ shared freely within our community. It is his desire that believers be equipped to share the hope that they have in Christ, being prepared and empowered to express their testimony as God brings opportunities.

If you have any questions about outreach and evangelism call the church or email Pastor James who would love to speak with you.

Nathan Kowalski

Nathan started playing guitar almost fifteen years ago, and has been a worship leader for over a decade. He loves crafting praise and worship sets that bring glory to God and enable people of all ages to engage with Him. Nathan shares a love of music with his wife, Alisha, and they are seeking to instill that love in their three daughters. He also works as a secondary school English and History teacher. Nathan enjoys driving new roads, discovering new bands, reading good books, and drinking a good cup of coffee.
