    Bishop Nicholas Dill was born on Dock Hill, Devonshire and has degrees in Politics and History from the University of Toronto and Law from the University of London. He practiced as a barrister in London and Bermuda, working at the firm founded by his grandfather, Conyers, Dill & Pearman. During this time he felt the call of God to offer himself for ministry and pursued studies at Wycliffe Hall Theological College at the University of Oxford.


    Bishop Dill began ministering in England and then in Bermuda. He was involved in setting up community based ecumenical programs to help address community needs in response to the gang violence that erupted in his city. Bishop Dill helped to re-establish links between the church and the local schools and was instrumental in setting up community outreach and feeding programs across the parish and new initiatives for outreach to the youth and children.


    In February 2013 he was elected as the next Bishop of Bermuda. In May of the same year, he was consecrated in the Cathedral in Hamilton. Bishop Dill is looking to see where God is leading the Church – but knows it includes a greater emphasis on evangelism, youth, communication, work within the community and with Christian brothers and sisters of every denomination, fueled by the scriptures and prayer.


    Bishop Nick is husband to Fiona, and father to 6 amazing children.

    Dr. Brian C. Stiller (born 1942) is Global Ambassador for the World Evangelical Alliance and lives with his wife Lily in the Toronto, Canada area.


    Stiller was raised in a Pentecostal minister’s home on the Prairies. Educated at the University of Toronto (BA in History), Wycliffe College (Master of Religion), and Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary (Doctor of Ministry), he has received honorary doctorates from Briercrest College and Trinity Western University.


    Following graduation, the Stillers moved to Montreal (1967) where he served as director of Youth for Christ, then as director of Toronto YFC, and finally as Canadian president of Youth for Christ (1975-83).


    In 1983, he was appointed president of EFC. This provided him with a national profile as a voice for people of biblical faith. Within months of his appointment, he founded and became editor-in-chief of EFC’s national magazine, Faith Today and in time opened the EFC Office of National Affairs in Ottawa. By way of Cross Currents, a weekly national television current events program, as well as other media, his analysis increasingly was heard by Canadians at all levels of leadership.


    In 1997 Brian became president of Tyndale University College & Seminary; leading the school through major restructuring. During his tenure Tyndale received university status from the Ontario government, a 56-acre campus was purchased, and a major capital drive lifted the schools into a new era of growth. In 2009 Stiller retired and was named president of the Tyndale Foundation where he served for two years. In July 2011, he was appointed Global Ambassador of the World Evangelical Alliance.


    He is the author of 12 books. The most recent are An Insider’s Guide to Praying for the World and From Jerusalem to Timbuktu: A Global Tour of the Spread of Christianity.


    His life mission comes from the time King David was rebuilding Israel. One group assisting him was described as those “who understood the times and knew what Israel should do” (1 Chronicles 12:32).
