If we haven’t gotten to meet yet, my name is Aaron Boswell and I have been working here at Westside Church in downtown Vancouver for the last two years with Westside Training (a ministry devoted to help equip, train and mobilize the current and next generation of Church Leaders, Ministry Directors, Pastors, and Church Planters). This past January, my wife, Samantha, and I announced to our church family that we will be launching out of Vancouver and back to the great city of Winnipeg to plant a new church in the SouthEast part of the city (Sage Creek).
A BIT ABOUT US…
Aaron originally hails from the US and became interested in church planting in 2009 while spending 6 months helping plant a new ministry in Paris, France. He then attended a two-year Church Planting Residency at the Summit Church in Raleigh Durham, North Carolina before planting two churches in Canada (one in Manitoba and one in Quebec). He met his wife Samantha at a Starbucks in Manitoba and thinks they have the best love story you’ve ever heard. They have two kids, Owen (4 years old) and Téo (2 years old), and Aaron loves conversations over coffee, helping develop leaders, and dreams of owning a Labradoodle named “Cookie”.
Samantha was born in Halifax, but grew up in Winnipeg (from age three to twenty three), where she met and married her husband, Aaron. She has a degree from the University of Manitoba and also attended the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. She runs her own health and wellness business from home, specializing in pre & postnatal health and essential oils and is passionate about anti-human trafficking, social justice, sharing the Gospel, creating community, dark chocolate, and watching This Is Us.
