Victor Maynard
Pastor
Victor’s call to ministry first came during his time with YWAM in Perth, Australia. That experience stirred a lifelong passion for the church, leading him to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Pastoral Ministry at Pacific Life Bible College and later a Master of Arts in Christian Studies at ACTS Seminaries.
While in school, Victor served as a youth pastor for five years before stepping into a decade-long role at Village Church in Canada. There he focused on teaching and on developing leaders to plant new church locations across the country. Along the way, Victor discovered a particular joy in seeing Scripture come alive in people’s lives and in equipping others to step boldly into God’s calling.
Now serving as Pastor of Care and Development, Victor is passionate about walking with people in all seasons of life, helping them encounter the transforming presence of Jesus, and training others to flourish in ministry.
