  • Corey hildebrand - Co-Pastor

    COREY@WINKLEREMMANUEL.COM

    Corey began his time at Emmanuel back in 2007 in the area of Youth Ministry.  That role has morphed over time into Family Ministries, which Corey oversees.  Corey is married to Stephanie who teaches at Winkler Elementary School and together they have three beautiful, big brown eyed boys named Hudson, Benjamin and Lane.  At Emmanuel Corey spends his time in the areas of Next Generation Ministry which includes ministry to Children, Students, Emerging Adults and Families.  Corey is always searching for the next great adventure, the next best book, a deeper conversation, a Winnipeg Blue Bombers win (PTL for 2019) and the greatest of coffees. Corey also spends time managing his families century farm. His motto: Person // Partner // Parent // Pastor - always in that order. 

  • Lois Bukar - Co-Pastor

    LOIS@WINKLEREMMANUEL.COM

    Lois joined the Pastoral Team in September 2023, after more than ten years in pastoral ministry in two other churches. Her life has been marked by moving around, so it is no surprise that she met her husband of 15 years while she was teaching at a seminary in Nigeria. Both Tromhan and Lois have an education background, which lays a substantial foundation for their world views. Within the team at Emmanuel, Lois uses her passion for communicating and connecting with people by hearing their stories and working towards an understanding of how God may be working. In addition to loving the Church, she also loves playing tennis with Tromhan and kayaking  or paddleboarding, and cheering on the Blue Bombers, no matter what the outcome.
