Kurtis Merrithew
lead elder
Kurtis Merrithew started at Trinity Owen Sound in January 2022.
Before that he interned at Bradford Baptist Church serving in all manner of ministry from Sunday school to regular preaching. He graduated from Tyndale University in Toronto with a Bachelor of Arts in biblical studies/theology and philosophy, and continues to learn and study these topics even when he’s supposed to be doing sermon prep.
Although he lived in the Newmarket area for most of his life, he is delighted to have moved to Owen Sound with its many natural wonders and wonderful people. He also enjoys music, movies, and appreciating the great outdoors.
