Last fall, Mike Willmer joined Parkside’s pastoral team as an eager and able-bodied intern embarking on a year-long exploration of pastoral work. Throughout the past year, Mike experienced first-hand the many duties and responsibilities borne by Parkside’s pastors. In addition, our team of pastors provided Mike with the necessary experiential and spiritual guidance that helped him determine if pastoral work is the path he should follow. As a result, Mike has decided to begin his life’s journey as a pastor and has accepted Parkside’s invitation to join the pastoral team. Please join us in welcoming Mike as a full-time pastor at Parkside Church. Accordingly, some of our pastors’ duties have changed. Here is a summary of the team’s updated pastoral responsibilities:
Mickey Aquilino: Men’s, Women’s, Premarital, and Parenting Ministries
Alistair Begg: Senior Pastor
Jonathan Cameron: Middle School Youth Ministry
Josh Griswold: Care, Small Groups, and Newly Marrieds Ministries
Jonathan Holmes: Green Campus Pastor, Counseling Pastor

Additionally, please join us in welcoming three new interns, Chris Beals, Stephen Downey, and Steve Judy, who will be passing through Parkside’s halls this year. We look forward to introducing them to you in the upcoming weeks.
