Leo and his wife Kim have been married for over 30 years (Dec 1991) and together they have raised three incredible children-most of that time here in London: Leo Jr., Aaron, and Sarah.
Leo serves in the role of Lead Pastor where his primary focus is preaching the Word, staff coaching and leadership, ministry alignment and shepherding the community here at Summerside. His heart is to live by faith in Jesus the Son of God and to help others to do the same!
A verse that has long captured his ministry vision says: “Consequently, he [Jesus] is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.” Heb. 7:25
Leo earned both his HBA and MBA degrees at Ivey Business School at Western University (1991 &1994), and later a Master of Divinity degree at Reformed Theological Seminary in Orlando, Florida (2001). Since 2001 he has been in various types of pastoral roles at North Park Community Church (London) and within the Harvest Bible Chapel family of churches (Chicago and London). He has also worked in the corporate world as a management consultant in Toronto.
In addition to his devotion to his family and ministry, Leo has a passion for Edmonton Oilers hockey, JRR Tolkien, movie trivia, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and will never turn down a Harvey’s double angus burger.
