“One of my greatest joys in ministry is that I love preaching God’s Word. It is not just its proclamation that I love, but its transformative effect on us all through the Holy Spirit. I love seeing people grow and flourish in their faith! It is such a joy to walk with God and His family and to see how His kingdom is being encouraged and realized in a world that is lost and has forgotten that they are loved by God. I seek to be authentic and Spirit-led as I follow Jesus while inviting others to join me on an incredible adventure of living out God’s love in the beautiful and delightful community of Crossfield.”

Barry is married to Jen and they have four children, Noah, Judah, Levi and Naomi. He was born and raised in Swift Current, cheers for the Saskatchewan Roughriders, loves coffee and cinnamon buns, dabbles with a bass guitar and is a self-proclaimed sci-fi nerd.

Hector has joined our staff as a part time youth director. Hector has a passion for youth, camp and his family.

Yvonne resides in Crossfield with her husband Chad. They have 3 adult children and 3 fantastic married into the family children and so far no grandchildren just grand puppies. Yvonne and her family began attending Crossfield Baptist Church in 1998, and in the December of 2008, she came on staff as the Administrative Secretary. What she loves best about her role as the Administrative Secretary is getting to know people from both the church and community because of the many ministries the church has going on during the week. When not working at the church Yvonne loves to spend time doing just about anything with her family and friends.
