Pastor Chris Bender and his wife, Rebecca, have a fond history of living in the North and have spent much of their ministry together in Northern Ontario, loving all it has to offer.

They enjoy connecting with people in the church and in the local communities.

​

Pastor Chris holds family and community values close to His heart. As a Dad, Grandpa/Papa, he understands the complexities of family life as well as the joys of being connected to those we love.

 

Pastor Chris is a great communicator of God’s word and has a passion for seeing people experience the Lord in real, personal ways.  He is a visionary, yet grounded in the true meaning of fellowship.

​

Pastor Chris enjoys fishing, golfing, music and watching sports of all kinds.  He also enjoys operating machines, has an AZ license, and, from time to time, you might see him out doing menial tasks on his tractor of choice, a Case/IH.

​

He is a pastor who desires to be connected with the North and to lead people into all God has for them.
