Meet The Team

Administrative Assistant
Beth Laverty

Originating in British Columbia, Beth's ministry family has moved from Camp Ministry across Canada before settling into the ministry at the Muskoka Bible Centre.

Most recently the assistant office manager of the Muskoka Bible Centre in Ontario, Beth brings several years of administrative experience from Christian bookstores and resort office management.

Beth and her husband Josh have 2 children (Malachi and Jessica) that bring them joy and no pets - because Josh is allergic to them.

 

As parents of 2 children, she and her husband are filled with passion and joy for the ministry of Christ's church.

Beth's contagious smile will be there to greet you throughout the week when visiting JUBC.

Lead Pastor
Stephen Page

Stephen joined the Jacksonville family in 2011. We gave him the somewhat boring title of Associate Pastor. Practically, this meant that he gave leadership to many of our ministries including youth and worship. Speak to him for a while and you will find a deep optimism for the church in our time as we passionately follow Jesus’ call to make disciples of every nation, beginning right here in our local area and continuing into the rest of the world.

 

In October of 2023 Pastor Stephen was called by our church into the role of Lead Pastor. 

 

 Stephen spent a number of years in camp ministry and some would argue that he never really let go of the kid inside – it is unlikely that Stephen would dispute that statement. He is not known for having the cleanest office in the world – seriously, swing by and check it out sometime – but, contrary to popular belief, he claims to know where everything is.

 

God has blessed Stephen and his wife Becky with four beautiful children (Kalia, Lilyana, Laney and Russell), who provide a great deal of joy to their family! Together, they enjoy many outdoor pursuits including canoeing, cross-country skiing, rock climbing, and just about anything else – IF it’s outdoors! Stephen also enjoys making maple syrup with family and friends, snowboarding, riding motorcycles, fly fishing, and being far away from modern conveniences and calling that “camping.”
