Colin Leaver

Colin Leaver is a pretty awesome boss (and that's coming from one of his staff, not him). He serves as Executive Director and leader of Quinte Youth Unlimited and has been on staff for 11 years. His passions are leadership, people and talking about Jesus. Colin is an ideas guy and is likely found building community connections or developing leadership and ministry opportunities.  He also volunteers to lead his church's youth group.

Colin was born in Ecaudor to missionary parents. When he was going into his teen years his family moved back to Canada, and around 16 yrs old he broke his arm and that's when he started to take his faith seriously. Sometimes accidents have a way of putting things into perspective for us. He went on to study Theology and Outdoor Education at both Briercrest and Summit College in Saskatchewan. 

​He lives in Quinte West with his lovely wife Deseray and their 4 rambunctious boys and, most importantly, loves being their dad and also their football and soccer coach during the summer. His family has a pool in their backyard and loves being able to bless other kids in their neighbourhood by having pool parties. Those are the kind of summer memories every kid wants! Get to know Colin and you'll be challenged and encouraged by his dedicated leadership!
