Leora has been the Director of Children's Ministry at CRBC since January 2012. She and her husband Dylan moved to Campbell River in 2008 from Three Hills, AB where they met while attending Prairie Bible College.
Leora grew up at a Christian Youth Camp in Quebec (Frontier Lodge) where her parents were the general directors. Through camp, short term mission trips and Bible school it became clear that Leora’s passion was to serve and love families and children. She prepared to do that by going into the education field by achieving her Bachelor of Arts in Education at Prairie. Her desire was to serve on the mission field - somewhere… she didn’t know that would be Campbell River, BC - Canada.
She began her time in the work force working as an educational assistant, behavioural interventionist as well as a full time daycare employee. Each role giving her a unique perspective and training that she continues to use daily as the director of children's ministry. She continues to be passionate about serving and loving children and families through providing environments, events and programs for learning more about who God is and what He is like.
Leora enjoys running, fitness classes, reading, chocolate, pizza and warm fuzzy blankets. Dylan and Leora enjoy road trip adventures and camping together.
