Spiritual Formation: Pastor Kevin
Jones
It was during a
period of deep personal crisis that Kevin first responded
to God’s call to prepare for pastoral ministry. After
serving as pastor to a church community in Unionville,
Ontario he was led by God to return to the corporate
sector; a time of reflection, brokenness, repentance and
restoration.
He joins the Trulls Road
Free Methodist Church team as
Associate Pastor of Discipleship and desires that all
would come to know, love and serve the Lord Jesus Christ
with all their heart, mind, soul and strength.
