Hi, my name is Keith, and I am the Pastor of Children and Youth Ministries here at The Drive! My ministry journey of close to 16 years now has taken me from serving as a student leader with a church youth group in Toronto to answering God’s call to minister to a group of youth in small-town Nova Scotia, and everything in between. After graduating from York University in Toronto in 2012 with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, I served as the Youth Ministries Intern with the Canadian Baptists of Ontario and Quebec (CBOQ) for nine months. While there, I applied and was accepted to the Master of Divinity program at Acadia Divinity College, where I pursued my formal ministry education until I graduated in 2017. In March 2018, I began my full-time ministry here at The Drive, and became happily married to my wonderful wife Kathleen five months later, in August of that year.

Ever since I began serving as a children and youth leader during my undergrad, God’s call to minister to the next generation of Christian believers has been clear to me. From youth leader in Toronto to full-time pastor here in New Brunswick, my commitment has always been to forming relational connections with our youth. I desire nothing more than to get to know and be a part of our students’ lives and to connect with their families, and I consider it my utmost goal to strengthen the presence of the church in their lives by encouraging the church to come alongside them as they continue to develop and explore the deepest nature of their faith. Please pray for me as I continue to faithfully.
