He and his wife Celine are the proud parents of their daughter Noemie, who has also been serving alongside her dad in the churches of Quebec. PAOC Kidz has a free resource page and a YouTube channel. There you can find material we created, use regularly and make available to churches and families. My passion and mission has been to make the Bible come alive and make known Jesus to children.
