PASTOR SHANE STEWART
LEAD PASTOR
Contact: shane@broadwaychurch.ca
Pastor Shane loves God, loves people, and loves helping people discover all that God has available for them in Jesus. He enjoys a good cup of coffee, good music, and good soccer (specifically, the Seleçao — the Brazilian National Soccer Team). Besides being a lifelong student, he is also the loving husband of Vick-Lee, a missionary kid, and a runner who even enjoys running…sometimes.
With 31,102 verses in the Bible, it’s hard to have a single favourite verse — but it’s a great joy to keep on discovering all the good news that is available to us and found in Jesus. If you haven’t been to Broadway Church yet, he’s looking forward to meeting you!

What is your favorite part of your job?
Being able to spend so much time with young people of all ages, interests, and backgrounds. The most amazing thing is seeing what God does in their lives as they get to know Him, to watch them grow into amazing young people. I also love to see volunteers come alive by using their God given talents and abilities to affect change in young people’s lives.
