Preached his first sermon at eleven years of age, by the age of sixteen, he was under the wing of his father, Reverend David Bowen. After university, where he met his beloved wife Irene, they were called to Quebec. There, they started 2 families, one in their home and the other in the church as one of the founders of this church it was one of the largest churches in the area at the time and still stands today. Allan and his wife became pillars of that community and upon coming back to Toronto became pillars of this community. From distribution of flowers to starting food banks in low income neighborhoods as well as in this current church.
