Meet our Staff
Rev. Andrew Thompson
|
Andrew grew up in Mississauga and felt a call to Christian ministry in his teenage years. This led him to work with Youth with a Mission (YWAM) as a missionary in Cartegena, Colombia for one year. Through his missionary work, Andrew discerned a call to congregational ministry. He received a B.A. from Tyndale University and Seminary, a B.Th. from McGill University and an M.Div. from the Presbyterian College. Ordained in 2011, Andrew served as Minister at Atwood Presbyterian Church in Atwood, Ontario and at Knox St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Dutton, Ontario before coming to Chalmers Presbyterian Church.
Andrew has also been serving as a Reserve Chaplain in the Canadian Armed Forces since 2016.
Andrew is married to Sarah, and together they have a busy household with four children ranging in age from 2-14 years, and two border collies. In his spare time (does he have spare time?), Andrew enjoys fishing, historical naval fiction, woodworking, travelling to the Maritimes and is slowly completing his Master of Pastoral Studies degree (MPS) in Spiritual Care and Psychotherapy at Knox College.
