In August 2003, Pastor Gary Hooper became the president of the Canadian chapter of the Tribe of Judah Motorcycle Ministry. Pastor Gary is also the founder and Senior Pastor of New Covenant Ministries. Pastor Gary was saved in 1980 coming out of a life of drug and alcohol addiction to preach the Word of God. He accepted Jesus as his Lord and Saviour in a drug dependency centre where a Gideon shared the love of God with him. As he grew in the Lord, God settled and established him as a Christian businessman.
His hunger for the Word of God and his compassion for people inspired him to start a church. In 1992, in the living room of their home, Gary and his wife Nancy founded New Covenant Ministries, with a call to bring people out of religion and into reality, out of tradition and into the Truth.
