Our Staff

Senior Pastor ... Pastor David McClain and his family arrived in Bonnyville in late July 2009. He brings over 30 years of previous pastoral experience, including a church plant and three church turn-arounds, plus a doctorate in church growth to his ministry here at Bonnyville Baptist Church. His desire is for Bonnyville Baptist to become a regional church that brings the old time gospel of Christ to a contemporary society in fresh new ways. He hopes to express the relevance and transforming power of knowing Christ to those who have lost hope in life. Pastor Dave and his wife, Vaunda, have two grown up sons.

Director of Children’s Ministries … Gianne Stover has been serving as our part-time Director of Children’s Ministries since 2006. Her vision is for the children in our church and community to know how much Jesus loves them and for them to see our church as a place where they can belong. Gianne and Lorne have three teenage sons.
Associate Pastor, Youth & Young Adults … Morgan Allen joined our ministry team in January of 2008. Morgan’s passion is that the teens in our church and community would see the need for God in their lives. Morgan and Joelle have one child.

Associate Pastor, Worship & Outreach ... Ben Smith has just recently joined the team. His vision is that we would glorify God together in a way so that we are changed and moved to action, drawing others to Christ. Ben and Sarah have four young children.
