Rev. Shawn Tait, Senior Pastor

Hello, my name is Shawn Tait, I am honoured to serve at Sussex Baptist as the Senior Pastor. I am married to Diane and together we are blessed to be glorifying Christ in marriage.

In the Fall of 2011 God brought me to Sussex Baptist as the Youth and Family Pastor. I served for five years alongside our youth; this was an amazing journey as God worked in amazing ways. In the fall of 2016 God led the church to transition my role from the Youth and Family Pastor into the Senior Pastor.

I attended Crandall University where I received a Bachelors in Biblical Studies, and then followed that up with a Master of Divinity degree from Acadia Divinity College. It was such a blessing to attend these schools, and to spend these years being trained under phenomenal leadership that equipped me to serve God properly in ministry. I was further blessed to be ordained by the church in the Fall of 2017.

Some of my hobbies are: golfing, watching movies, going to the gym and spending time with family and friends. My life verse is Philippians 4:13, “For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.”  


Alex Galbraith, Pastor of Youth and Family

Hello, My name is Alex Galbraith, and I am excited to be serving at Sussex Baptist Church as the Associate Pastor of Youth And Family. While new as of 2025 to vocational ministry, I have spent the last 17 years volunteering and helping to lead youth and young adult ministries, and I can’t wait to see how God works in the lives of the youth and families in our church and community.

Like Pastor Shawn, I attended Crandall University for my undergrad, where I majored in Biblical Studies and History, and then attended Acadia Divinity College where I graduated with my Masters of Divinity in 2024 .

Some of my hobbies include: playing Board Games and Rocket League with my friends, and reading. And my life verse(s) is Romans 8:38-39:

38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
