“Pastor on Duty” on Lake Shore Blvd West

One of my goals for 2026 is to be more present and visible in the Mimico neighbourhood at MLC because, let’s be honest, if you saw me walking down Lake Shore Blvd West, you probably wouldn’t know I was your local pastor!

Here’s my solution: a t-shirt that says “Pastor on Duty”.

The idea is simple: It’s a fun and friendly way to let people know I’m around and available. I started out planning to do some “office time” at a local coffee shop once a week at a regular time, but after wearing the shirt a few times and getting some great reactions from people passing by, the plan has grown. Now you might spot me all around the neighbourhood.

Keep your eyes open! Whether I’m grabbing a coffee or just out and about, if you see the shirt, feel free to say hello. No agenda, no pressure, just a pastor who’s happy to chat.

Where will Pastor on Duty show up next? Stay tuned on our social media!
