George graduated in 1968 with his BA from Northwest College. Joyce (nee England) attended during the 1962/63 years.  We were married in Calgary, Alberta in June of 1964.  After George graduated, we traveled for about a year in evangelistic meetings. 

We then went to New York City and worked with Rev. Benjamin Crandall of Brooklyn Tabernacle which at that time was the largest English speaking Assembly of God Church in the City of New York.  George was youth pastor as well as the chaplain of New York Christian Academy, a Christian High School.  After about a year or so we left New York and came back to Washington State to the Kirkland area at which time we began to pioneer what is now Cedar Park Church in Bothell.  We began Cedar Park Assembly in the Helen Keller Elementary School in Kirkland in June of 1970 and stayed there nearly 11 years.  The last 4 years of our ministry there, the first church building was established on the property on Juanita /Woodinville Drive.  This church reached approximately 500 people.  In 1981 we accepted the pastorate of Richmond Pentecostal Church in metropolitan Vancouver Canada.   In 1985 we took the Pastorate of Elim Tabernacle in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. Then  in 1992, we were called to Harvest City Church in Vancouver, B. C. Canada.

Since graduating from Northwest, George has furthered his education, by earning a Master’s degree, followed by a Doctor of Ministry Degree from Canadian Theological Seminary.

At the present time we continue to Pastor Harvest City Church, Vancouver. It is a church with an outreach to Vancouver and to the World.  George heads up a number of ministries extending beyond his church.  They are:  President of the “Association of Christian Ministries of Vancouver”;  “Director of Vancouver, City of Destiny”; Founder and President of an international ministry called “City Embassy” where he connects the church of one city with another and strengthens church leadership in each respective city.  At present his key focus is the United Kingdom and China.

Joyce is in a pre doctoral program as well as an ordained minister on the pastoral team at Harvest City Church.

We have 3 married children, two daughters and one son.  We have eight grandchildren.
