Leader Bio:
Gary Jones grew up in Dunnville, Ontario, a small town south of Hamilton.
As a young man, he moved to Hamilton to work in the steel mills but decided at the age of 25 that wasn’t the life for him.
He then attended McMaster University in Hamilton, where he says he “fell in love” with sociology.
“It was 1968, the hippies were around, sociologists were studying all this and it seemed interesting,” he said.
He moved on to York University in Toronto where he completed a master’s degree in sociology.
Jones put his education to use in a number of social work positions over the years, eventually landing a job with the federal government as a sociologist studying the environment.
After Brian Mulroney’s Progressive Conservative government assumed power in the 1980s, cuts came to environmental research and Jones lost his job.
After working some part-time jobs, his wife at the time went into lay ministry and they ended up in a small church in rural Ontario.
Unfortunately, she was diagnosed with breast cancer and succumbed to the illness.
During his bereavement, Jones went to the United Church minister for councilling. He told Jones he belonged in the ministry.
He took the advice to heart and in the fall of 1994, he was off to Emmanuel College in Toronto.
After four years of study, he was ordained as a minister in 1998.
Jones ministered in southern Ontario for 14 years before retiring.
He later met Christine and re-married in 2016. They settled in Lion’s Head, Ontario on the Bruce Peninsula.
As fate would have it, a year later they ended up on the Great Northern Peninsula.
