Peter is a pastor/teacher who brings Godly counsel to the challenges of everyday life. He has a heart for the hurting, for the marginalized and for those who have yet to hear that Jesus loves them. Peter loves the local church, especially when it’s fully engaged in the coming of God’s kingdom here on earth. Peter also has a vision for missional ministry that begins in Oakville and stretches around the world. In his role as The Sanctuary’s Lead Pastor, Peter provides visionary leadership for its people and pastoral staff. Peter has come to us after twenty fruitful years of pastoral ministry at Chartwell Baptist Church. A long, long time ago, Peter was a research scientist with the Ministry of Natural Resources. Being a pastor was not his idea.
