Doug has been hired on a part-time contract to serve as our Interim Executive Pastor. His mandate includes administrative leadership, consultation, and coaching to assist the congregation in its preparation for a new chapter.
Doug is a retired Presbyterian minister with 25 years of congregational leadership experience. He is currently working on his Doctor of Practical Theology at McMaster Divinity College with a research focus on the emotional health of congregational systems.
Doug is married to Wendy and they have two young adult children.
During the Covid lockdowns, Doug rekindled his enjoyment for baking. This necessitated his other new hobby, running. He ran his very first 10k in May, (then had a piece of cake to celebrate.)
