Dante Jemmott

Director of Youth & Student Ministries

Mississauga City Baptist Church is home for Dante - it's the church where he grew up. With a Bachelors of Fine Arts from York University, Dante was a theatre actor with credits including the Stratford Festival, Shaw Festival and Chicago Shakespeare Theater.

Dante is currently working towards completing his Masters of Divinity in Pastoral Ministry at Tyndale University/Seminary. In his spare time, you may find him reading a non-fiction book, clutching his pillow as he watches a thriller movie, or lost in the world of a gripping video game.

Him and his wife, Tamia, enjoy summer bike rides and fall hikes, throwing around a frisbee with their friends, and playing board games.

The Fellowship of Believers (Acts 2:42-27) is one of his favourite portions of scripture, and he loves to see this exemplified cross-generationally in the church. Through his work in Youth Ministry, he hopes to encourage spiritual growth through the deepening sense of community at MCBC.

"The Sovereign LORD is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to tread on the heights." - Habakkuk 3:19
