Jeff Lockyer has led the church he grew up in for almost two decades. In that time Southridge Community Church has grown to become a multi-site church across the Niagara Region where each location is defined by its own missional “Anchor Cause,” serving the homeless, migrant farm workers, and low-income families.

He is the Chair of the Board of the Global Leadership Network Canada and helps host the GLS Podcast. Jeff also launched a pastor-to-pastor mentoring system called “Leaders’ Village” that has supported pastors across Ontario for the past 10 years. A former national team long-distance runner, Jeff and his wife Becky live in St. Catharines with their three children, Owen, Simon, and Addilyn.
