MEET OUR TEAM!
Pastor Mike has been an ordained minister for 25 years. He and his wife, Julie have been involved in the ministry of music and the preaching of God’s Word for over thirty-five years. During that time, they have ministered in churches, prisons, conferences and overseas mission fields. In October of 2014, they founded “Freedom Life Church” (Now Frontline Church) in Kitchener, Ontario. Frontline Church is a close family of believers who love God and one another and are passionate in prayer, worship and the Word. In 2017, their son, Matthew and his wife, Cindy, joined FLC, along with their son, Austin and daughter, Jaelyn. During that time, we have seen Frontline growing in spiritual maturity, vision, prayer, ministries and leadership. The Lord’s blessing has been on it from the start and we are experiencing the presence of God in our services and outreaches in a deeper way. To God be the Glory!
