Our Binbrook Team

  • Rev. Michael Bronson, Lead Pastor

    Michael gives direction and leadership to Mountainside Church. He is passionate about helping people understand the message of Jesus: That regardless of who you are, God has a good plan for your life & wants a relationship with you. Michael is married to his beautiful wife Olivia and together have two children.

  • Tia Barahona, Location Pastor

    Tia is the Location Pastor of Mountainside Dundas and helps oversee the team. She is a professor at Mohawk College and is married to her husband Chava. They also have a new baby at home and a toddler, so please pray for lots and lots of sleep.

  • Aaron Insanalli, Atmosphere & Operations Pastor

    Aaron’s role is to ensure that every department is up and operating efficiently, and to help create a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Aaron and his fiance Alisa are getting married this summer!

  • Olivia Bronson, Events Director / Interim Preschool & Nursery Director

    Olivia is responsible for all the events that we do at Mountainside. Her desire is to see people build new friendships so that people will grow in their faith. She also runs Canada’s largest Christian youth conference every Fall (Change Conference), and is married to her husband Michael and has two children. Olivia is currently praying that Target Department Stores will return to Canada.

  • Clayton Mallett, Youth Pastor

    Clayton’s main goal as our Youth Pastor is to help the students of Mountainside grow in their faith while having fun. Clayton and his wife Beth (our Nursery & Pre-school pastor!) have three amazing kids and live in Binbrook. When Clayton isn’t on the water fishing, you can find him watching fishing videos while cleaning his fishing rods, while dreaming about fishing.

  • Sarah Powell, Team Administrator

    Sarah is in charge of all things administration with Mountainside and helps keep everything — seriously, everything — organized. Sarah is a kindergarten teacher at a Christian school, and absolutely loves Mountainside. Her organization helps our Church function in the best way possible, and the team would not know what to do without her help. No, seriously.

  • Beth Mallett, Children's Pastor

    Beth is responsible for looking after kids at Mountainside. She knows that the most important thing that we can do as a local Church is to invest into our kids and to make sure that they are loved. Beth is also married to our Youth Pastor Clayton, and is the one thing stopping him from spending all of their money on fishing gear. Good job Beth.

  • Neil Miles, Music & Production Director

    Neil gives leadership to the music and production aspects of our Church. He has the goal of helping people connect to God through song, and to help people truly show love to God through musical worship. Neil and his family have lived in the village of Binbrook for over 10 years and can remember when Binbrook didn’t even have a gas station… Oh wait…

  • Khalilah Elliot, Connections Coordinator

    Khalilah takes care of all things connections. From first-time visitors, to our Alpha programs, Khalilah gives leadership and vision to helping people get connected and stay connected.
