Jen Boyes-Garbin has worn many hats: Regional Minister for Canada (Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)), church planter, the mother of two grown children, and a life-long student. She has a deep love for all people and their capacity to transform the world. She holds a Doctor of Ministry from Emmanuel College, focusing on exploring the faith practice of Canadian Christian emerging adults who live their faith outside the institutional church. Jen designs and leads workshops and open space forums around re-imaging the 21st-century church, discovering purpose, innovations in ministry, and transforming congregational culture. She has written a number of meditations and alternative worship services highlighting anti-racism/pro-reconciliation, mindfulness, justice, and living a Love-centred life. Jen calls Windsor, Ontario, home and spends free moments growing green edible things. She also enjoys painting, singing, and playing mandolin.
