Helping to keep soul winners
on the job winning souls
Gordon LeGrow became pastor of Forest City Baptist Church in London, Ontario, Canada in January 2000. The church had been founded by Dr. Fred Howard at age 78 just a few years earlier.
Gordon began working as church planter at that time to see the church established. Brother LeGrow also heads up Independent Baptist Canada, which is a ministry of helps to Canadian Pastors
as well as Missionaries to Canada. He works with GSBM in producing some of the audio/video presentations for the ministry, hosting the Pastors Training School here in Canada, and directing the
Canadian Emergency Helps. His vision for ministry is to see Forest City Baptist Church well established in London to meet the needs of the community with evangelistic outreaches as well as help
ministries etc. His desire for IBCanada, is to see an interdependence among Independent Baptists in Canada, including a quarterly news letter/magazine and devotional book. His vision for GSBM
is to continue to host the Pastors Training School every second year as well as establish the Emergency Road and Housing Ministry here in Canada.
Gordon was born in Ontario, Canada and grew up in Toronto. He attended Bible college at the age of 28. He earned Graduate of
Theology degree from Baptist Bible College Canada in 1983 and a Bachelor of Theology degree from the same school in 1984.
From 1983 - 1998 he ministered in Brantford, Ontario, Canada as Assistant Pastor and then Church Planter. Because of his wife's long battle with leukemia, he had to take a two-year sabbatical from
the ministry in 1998. At that time the Lord opened the door in London for him to come and continue building on the foundation that Dr. Howard had started.
In 1971 Gordon married Shelley Lynn LeGrow and they have three daughters and six grandchildren.
