Heading About Me
My name is Jonathan. I am a 60+ Canadian living in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. I am happily married and I have 7 children.
My undergraduate degree from Carleton University in Ottawa Canada was in Geography. God had other plans for my life, and I am now an ordained pastor in the Baptist church in Canada. I have a Master’s degree in theology (Acadia Divinity College) and a Doctorate in theology (Acadia Divinity College) with a focus on governance in East Africa.
Some of my interests / hobbies include: * Travel * Photography * Music (I play guitar, bass, drums and sing) * Monty Python * Movies (faves: Avatar, Babe, Matrix I & II, the Mission, City Slickers, Ghost Town) * Making the world a better place
