STAFF

Hi! I'm Pastor Rosemary and it is a pleasure to be the pastor of Dryden Free Methodist Church. I strive to lead with integrity and compassion rooted in a deep for love Jesus Christ. I enjoy building relationships, being the hands and feet of Jesus in my community, and actively sharing the Good News of Christ. 

Outside of church, I enjoy nature and wildlife photography, hiking, reading, and hockey (Go Leafs Go!). You can often find me at events around town as I also enjoy connecting with my community, especially at craft or garage sales. 

Prior to working in pastoral ministry, my passion for helping others led me to the fields of refugee and international student work in the Niagara Region. I worked with refugees and international students for 15 years, having completed my MA in Immigration & Settlement Studies prior to entering that field. I worked in multiple para-church and non-governmental organizations in those fields over the years and still have a passion for the work. 

My journey into pastoral ministry began in 2021 in the Be In Christ denomination, where I eventually became an ordained associate pastor. Over the past few years, I have completed a certificate program through Emmanuel Bible College and look forward to furthering my ministerial education in the coming years. I have been formally inducted into FMCIC and I look forward to many years within the denomination.
