Meet the Team.
We have the privilege of having a fantastic staff team here at St. Albert Alliance Church – each member bringing to the table unique gifts and a passionate heart for calling people to and equipping people in their apprenticeship journey with Jesus.

Kirk Cowman
Lead Pastor
Kirk is passionate about helping people grow deeper in intimacy with Jesus by experiencing the transforming presence and power of the Spirit and living each day on mission with Jesus. The first Bible verse Kirk learned when he began apprenticing in the way of Jesus was Hebrews 13:5, and the theme verse for his life is Acts 13:36, as Kirk’s greatest desire is to serve God in this generation. Kirk and his wife, Britton, are avid readers; they love taking road trips, watching movies, spending time with their grown kids and going on walks with their pug; anything Kirk and Britton can do together is their favourite thing to do.

Mike Sotski
Associate Lead Pastor
Mike has been on staff since 2017 and his favourite Bible verse is Ephesians 2:8-10. The thing he likes most about St. Albert is the small city feel and all of the great park space that allows you to feel like you are getting away, while still being in the city. His hobbies include most sports - he's always up for a little friendly competition.

Lisa Peters
Associate Lead Pastor
Lisa has been on staff since 2006. Her favourite thing about StAAC is the wonderful people. Lisa loves going for walks, having coffee with friends and reading. Her favourite Bible verse is Matthew 11:28-30. Lisa owns 3 plaid shirts (but you should really ask her how many pairs of heels she owns!)

Bob Cowie
Community Engagement Pastor
Bob has been on staff since 2017. His favourite thing about StAAC is the diversity of the people and their willingness to step up when needed has been inspiring to him. Bob's favourite Bible verse is Philippians 2:10-11. He loves to go for a ride on his motorcycle and build various projects and he owns 6 plaid shirts!
