Bob Gal
Bob opened a coffee house in the early 70′s during the Jesus movement, then became a program director with YFC (Youth for Christ). He founded In His Service Ministries in 1983. IHS proved to be a launching pad that enabled Bob to lead short-term mission trips and conduct seminars on Lifestyle Witnessing and a School of Prayer.
This led to the networking of churches together in prayer during the 1990′s in Calgary and Edmonton while serving as a pastor in those cities. Following his years of pastoring he built a prayer center.
For the past 13 years Bob has been involved at The Chapel at West Edmonton Mall, and is ministering as an Urban Worker with Mission Canada equipping believers in personal witnessing, hosting Lovedmonton Prayerline, and conducting Prayer Clinics.
