At 25 years of age, Rev. Michael (Mike) Rundle, the new minister at St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church in Hanover, is currently the youngest serving minister of the Presbyterian Church in Canada.
A native of Nova Scotia, Rundle began his ministry in Hanover in early September.
"It's God's calling for me to be here," he said, adding that after looking at the church's profile and visiting the community, "I realized this would be the best fit for me — a place where I could use the gifts God has given to me."
Those gifts, he said, include reaching out to others, visiting and "being able to discern others' gifts, helping them to use their gifts for God's mission and purpose in this church and in the community."
