Gaylyn has served in pastoral charges in Happy Valley – Goose Bay, Labrador, Englehart, Northern Ontario, Port Nelson, Burlington, Carlisle-Kilbride and St. Paul’s, Milton. Always in Team Ministry Gaylyn enjoys a collaborative working environment and has strived to maintain a balance between ministry and family life. Raised in a Baptist tradition Gaylyn found a better fit for her more liberal and inclusive theological position in the United Church. In her spare time, Gaylyn enjoys the outdoors, walking, cycling, swimming, skating as well as music, reading and the arts.
John and Gaylyn are excited to be at Trinity United Church in Guelph. The people are welcoming and caring. Trinity is truly a community congregation where everyone is accepted just as you are. Trinity is a congregation on the go with ministry but it’s also a place of spiritual renewal where God is at the center of everything we do. Come and join us on Sunday for worship or any day and discover how the Spirit of Christ is guiding us along the journey of life and faith.
