| Pastor of Worship & Administration | God is up to something. God is up to something in our world, in our church, and in our lives. For almost forty years, God has been at work in Faith Church, gathering his family, deepening his children’s knowledge of his grace in Jesus Christ, and equipping them to go in his Spirit to serve his world. Faith Church is a warm, caring church where all people can find a home.
Pastor Ryan was born and raised in Strathroy, Ontario, Canada. He studied at Redeemer University College and Calvin Theological Seminary. He was ordained to the ministry at Faith Church on March 1, 2006. Besides being Pastor of Worship and Administration at Faith Church, Ryan is a husband of one (Jody) and a father of four (Evan, Graeme, Torin, and Bronwyn).

| Pastor of Congregational Life | The people of Faith Church take their calling to be the hands and feet of Christ seriously. There is an understanding that if we are to live into who Christ has called us to be, we need deep roots like trees planted by streams of water. The root structure of Faith Church - discerning spiritual gifts, being part of a small group fellowship, digging deeper into the word through personal and corporate study - these are the areas I've been invited to journey along with my fellow brothers and sisters in the Lord at Faith and in doing so I look forward to experiencing God's grace and peace along the way.
Pastor Gary is a native of Baldwin, Wisconsin, where he graduated from Baldwin-Woodville High School in 1995. He received his Bachelor's degree in Humanities from Northwestern College in Orange City, Iowa - but more importantly - there he met Margo, a native of Rose, Nebraska, who was working towards her Bachelor's in English Teaching with a Drama minor. Gary and Margo were married in May, 1998. After graduation they moved to Holland, Michigan, where Gary attended Western Theological Seminary and received his M.Div. While serving the Bethel Reformed Church of Ellsworth, Minnesota, the Hanson's were blessed with two girls, Hayley and Skylar. When he isn't spending time with the girls, playing or watching sports of some sort - Gary works as the Pastor of Congregational Life at Faith Church.
