Pastor Stephen Gordon

I was born and raised on a farm just outside of Maxwell Ontario. I was born into a Christian home and learned about Christ from a young age. My family was very involved in the ministry at our home church, Rock Mills Fellowship Baptist Church in Flesherton, ON. At the age of five after an AWANA club meeting I gave my heart to the Lord. At the age of ten I followed the Lords' leading and was baptized. I was very involved in the church while growing up serving with my family whenever we could.

Upon completing High School I enrolled in New Brunswick Bible Institute and completed their Bachelor of Theology program. It was during this time at Bible School that I met my wife Abby. We were married following graduation and served for two years at my home church as a Pastoral Intern. When the time came for the internship to be finished it was recommend by my church that I be ordained for the ministry. The ordination took place in May of 2010 and we began our ministry at Lighthouse in August of that same year. 

 

After coming to Lighthouse in 2010 I continued my education by taking courses through Baptist Bible Seminary in Clarks Summit PA. In May of 2014 I gradutaed with a Master of Ministry Degree. 

 

It is my privilege to serve as the Pastor here at Lighthouse. It is my passion to preach God's word and to help people live out the truths of the Bible. 

Intern Alex Elder

I was born and raised in Waterloo Ontario and have been blessed with a Christian home. I attended Rock Mills Fellowship Baptist Church in Flesherton Ontario because my family would spend weekends at our cottage in Eugenia. I also attended New Life Camp in Priceville Ontario each summer as a camper first and then as summer staff.

Rev. Peter Stopford 

Pastor Peter was born in England and immigrated to Canada after serving in the British Air force during and after World War II. Pastor Peter was hired by Ontario Hydro and eventually came to work at Douglas Point in Kincardine. He finished his career at Hydro and upon retirement went through seminary to be trained for the ministry. He pastored a Baptist church in Port Elgin for ten years before having to resign due to health issues. Pastor Peter came to know Christ as his Saviour as a young Adult through a Billy Graham crusade in London England. He has been a vibrant witness and testimony for the Lord in the Kincardine area for many years.

Pastor Peter is not on staff at Lighthouse but serves in various roles as a retired Pastor.
