Pastor Alec grew up in a pastor’s home in Western Maine. Brianna grew up in a Christian home in Standish, Maine. Alec graduated with his Associates in Aviation Science from Nashua Community College in 2013. After graduation, Alec started his career at the Portland Jetport in Portland, Maine as an aircraft maintenance technician, where he still works today as an Assistant Director of Maintenance. Brianna began her career in Nursing and has enjoyed many great opportunities to interact with patients. She attended St. Joseph’s College of Maine and received her Bachelor of Nursing in Science degree in 2014. Ten days later, Alec and Brianna got married.
Growing up, Alec always had a desire for ministry and felt the Lord leading him to mission aviation. Alec became a licensed private pilot in 2015 and started conducting mini mission flights across the state. In 2016, Alec and Brianna started attending West Buxton Baptist and focused on serving wherever the Lord led them. Alec credits the members of WBBC for encouraging him to serve at a local mission aviation camp in 2016. In 2017, Alec, along with five other board members, founded the Southern Maine based Mission Aviation Mission, Propelling the Gospel. Alec began serving on the deacon board and served as the pastoral intern under the mentorship of Pastor Trent while also attending the South African Theological Seminary, where he received his Bachelor of Theology Degree in early 2022.
In 2022, the deacons saw the need for an Associate Pastor, and Alec was installed in August of 2022. Moving forward, Alec will be focusing on assisting Pastor Trent, encouraging all the ministries of the church, occasionally preaching, and focusing on the young adults by hosting monthly dinners for young married couples and teaching Sunday school for the young adult singles who have graduated high school. He is also enrolled at the Colorado Biblical University where he is seeking to achieve his Master’s in Biblical Education degree in the next few years.
Alec is also a Registered Maine Guide and seeks to take youth outdoors to enjoy Creation and point young people to the Creator through the sport of hunting and fishing. Alec and Brianna have two boys and one girl.
