Atlantic Canada

Kevin and Leona Clarke

Kevin and Leona became Awana Missionaries in Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario in 1985. Prior to their move to Manitoba, they were residents of New Brunswick. Raised in a Christian home, Kevin was saved at the age of 10. In the summer of 1971, he met Leona Jollymore while she was teaching DVBS.

Three years later, he graduated from the New Brunswick Instuite of Technology. Leona graduated from the Moncton School of Nursing in 1975, and they were married the same year. God has blessed them with two lovely daughters.

The Clarkes were actively involved in Awana in their church when they sensed God's call to full-time ministry with young people. In March 1985, He opened the door for them to serve the churches in Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario which they did for 18 years. Early in 2003, after Bart & Patricia Macumber retired from the Awana Ministry, Kevin & Leona followed God's call to return 'home' to Atlantic Canada and serve as the 'new' Awana Missionaries.

They are ready to counsel with pastors and leaders regarding the youth ministry of your church, and to present the Awana program. They are also available to conduct leadership training, sponsor area events, and speak at Awana presentations and other services in your church. Please feel free to contact them directly.
