Steve grew up here in the Great Village area. Following a raucous early life and rather dramatic conversion experience, he attended Briercrest Bible College in Caronport, Saskatchewan graduating in 1988. Since that time, he has served as lead pastor here at FBC. His responsibilities include being the primary communicator and Bible teacher for the congregation and providing overall leadership to the various church ministries with its other staff and leadership team. Steve and his wife Florence have three grown children, four grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Beyond serving and mission, his interests include history, guitar, photography, and tomatoes.
