Pastor Adam Deibert is CUC's New Chaplain


Adam Deibert, pastor of the Sherwood Park SDA Church, has accepted a call to serve as Canadian University College's second chaplain.  He will move with his family to Lacombe this summer.
   
Pastor Deibert is a native of Alberta.  Born in Calgary, he became an Adventist at a young age, and attended Pineridge (now Garden Road) SDA Church where he was baptised at age 14.  

He felt the call to ministry just before graduating high school, after being actively involved in leading local church’s youth ministries programs along with Angela Sell.  He and Angela went on to study at Canadian University College, during which time they were married and had their first son, Austin.  While at their first pastorate at Edmonton South SDA Church, a second son, Anthony, joined the family.  

From Edmonton, Pastor Deibert and his family moved to Andrews University where he received his Masters of Divinity degree.  Since 2007, they have been ministering in Sherwood Park, Alberta, where Adam serves at the church and Angela at Sherwood Care, a long-term care facility.  

Pastor Deibert says his purpose in ministry is, "To help others find freedom to live the abundant life God wants for them."  He and his family are excited to be returning to CUC's hilltop community.
