Alana Martin
Minister to The GO Project
“I’ve been working with GO since 2010 when I started as a summer site staff while in University! Since then, I’ve worked as a summer youth coordinator, children’s program coordinator, pilgrimage coordinator, program director, and now, Minister to The GO Project. Outside of GO, I bring 10+ years of experience in children and youth ministry within the United Church of Canada at local and national levels and am deeply passionate about creating resources and space for young people to explore their faith and to be inspired to make the world a better place. I studied Spanish and International Development at Dalhousie University, spending a year on exchange in Mexico and then Cuba. I am a Diaconal Minister in the United Church of Canada. I live in Toronto with my dog Murphy and partner, Matt, and am originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia where my family still lives. I love sewing, watching bad TV, and spending time with friends and family.”
