Dave Lombardo is the Lead Pastor of New Hope Methodist Church in Newmarket, Ontario. He is passionate about helping people encounter Jesus in practical, life-changing ways and equipping leaders to serve with humility, courage, and authenticity. For 20 years Dave has served in Jesus-centered ministry. From serving kids and youth, to church planting, to working alongside prisoners, he has developed a deep love for justice, restoration, and caring for those often overlooked.

Dave lives just north of Toronto with his wife Sandra and their two boys, Jack and Sam, along with their frenchie named Mortadella.

Whether he's preaching, leading, or carving wood at the cottage, Dave's heart is to see people shaped by Jesus so their neighbourhoods are changed.
