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.
