Rob McMillan served as treasurer of Atlantic Community Church for two decades, volunteering his time, talents, and heart into the ministry of finances of the church. The majority his service was unseen and unnoticed by the congregation, all the while Rob never wanted any public acknowledgment of his service. The church ministry was able to thrive because of his dedication to making sure the finances were in order and challenging the leadership to be good stewards of the funds that came in, to not just sit on money but use it for ministry and to save when finances were tight.
In honour of Rob’s many years of service to Atlantic Community Church, and for the influence he has had on God’s Kingdom, we are grateful to award a scholarship in his name to a deserving student who has shown a similar passion to volunteering and God’s service.
