Speakers:
Jordan and Chantal Gadsby have been Lead Pastors in Nipawin, SK since August of 2013. Chantal has a BSc in Psychology and a MA in Counseling Psychology and Jordan is also the Regional Director for the Prairie Region with ACOP. We love Jesus, love the Church, and believe that ministry should be life giving—not just for pastors, but for their families too. Our passion is to encourage leaders to thrive in the calling God has placed on their lives and to see communities changed by the gospel lived out in the lives of Jesus’ followers. We have four amazing kids who have jumped into ministry alongside us and we all love spending time traveling and playing games together.
Camp Pastors:
Rod & Cheryl are passionate for both Jesus and His church. They’ve been adventuring together for 37 years, have 4 adult children and 6 amazing grandchildren (and counting)! On sunny days they are often found hiking, reading, people-watching or meandering aimlessly in their Miata with the top down and the tunes cranked up. They pastored churches for 25 years before embracing the role of ACOP Regional Director 13 years ago. Rod and Cheryl travel extensively as they coach, inspire and encourage dozens of churches and hundreds of leaders across Canada each year.
Worship:
Danelle Warkentine is a worship leader and farm girl from North Battleford, SK. She has 1 grown son, including his wife and 2 grandkids! Danelle has attended Bible College in Eston and Moose Lake for years helping start the horse program at MLGC. She has a desire to see people of all ages worshipping God regardless of life circumstances. That it doesn’t matter where you are in life, what you have done or what you are going through, He is ALWAYS good and loving and the righteous King that deserves praise in all things! She longs for everyone to meet Jesus as He truly is and not how we perceive Him to be. In every encounter with Him as we lift Him up in worship He seeks to make us whole, living in freedom and living out our true identity, knowing the name that He calls us and fully consecrated to Him.
