Meet the Pastoral Team
|
Sandra Larose, Co-Pastor I'm excited to be a part of the Pastoral team. My favourite verse is probably the one most well known to Christians, John 3:16 and although not a scripture from the bible, my favourite saying is "The will of God will not take you where the grace of God cannot sustain you." What a comfort it is to me to know that no matter what obstacles I face, God will provide me with his grace and protection. My favourite aspect of worship services is the music. I love the comfort of the older hymns which bring me comfort with their familiar words and tune, but also enjoy the more contemporary Christian music too. Phil Wickham and Chris Tomlin are some of my favourite music artists. I enjoy spending my free time with my family and friends playing games, attending live sports events (Toronto Blue Jays - MLB baseball and Brantford Bulldogs - OHL hockey are my favourite teams), or taking day trips. Crocheting, pottery and other crafts are also some of my favourite activities to do. I am looking forward to working with the rest of the Pastoral team throughout the year to serve the Lord and the Cambridge congregation. Brittany Bartlett, Co-Pastor Co-Pastor, what an exciting title! As a new Mom, I am working to balance life with a newborn, while taking on this new role. My favourite passage of scripture is Psalm 16, but specifically, verse 11, which states: "Instead, You direct me on the path that leads to a beautiful life. As I walk with You, the pleasures are never-ending, and I know true joy and contentment." (The Voice Translation) My favourite aspect of church, is being part of a community that takes care of one another. Our congregation, although small, is supportive, caring, and always just a phone call away. I enjoy learning more about the Bible, and I look forward to starting a small group Bible Study after our Summer break. Learning in fellowship is my perfect idea of "church". I enjoy spending time with my family, my amazing husband Carlton and our brand new son, Levi. We also volunteer with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Canada, and have had our little sister Melissa for over two years. She brings joy to me in ways I cannot fully express. I also love anything to do with animals, with llamas being my favourite! Taking me to a petting zoo, is my idea of a perfect outing! I am excited to serve the Cambridge Congregation, and look forward to where this new path will lead me. Carlton Bartlett, Co-Pastor I am happy to be a part of the new Pastoral Team. My favourite Bible verse is from Phillipians 4:6-7: "Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus." My favourite aspects of church, are when we spend time together outside of a "Sunday Service". Getting together for a games night, volunteering together as a congregation, or getting together for events is a great way to have fellowship and grow with our community. I enjoy all outdoor activities, with camping and fishing being my favourites. I have my own YouTube fishing channel, and enjoy spending time on the Grand River, Whiteman's Creek, and Waterford Ponds. It has been a fun experience teaching our little sister Melissa (through Big Brother's Big Sister's), how to fish, and I can't wait until my son is old enough to learn as well.
