About Us
Rev. Dr. Kebede F. Dibaba
The establishment of Lutheran Church and congregation in Fort St. John goes back to 1930. At that time, Pastor Peter Ellington was serving in the South Peace area and added Fort St. John to his schedule as he saw the need. The first formal service was held in 1945. The first resident Pastor was Pastor Osborne Olson who served from 1945 to 1951.
The church we are in currently, was built in October 1980. This Church is dedicated to the glory of God.
Looking back at the road traveled by the Peace Lutheran congregation since 1945, there have been several times when there appeared a fork in the road. Pastors and congregation contemplated which way to go. They sought God's guidance and will. God has honoured their commitment to Him.
On the 24th of February 2008, the BC Synod installed
Rev. Dr. Kebede F. Dibaba as a
Pastor of Peace Lutheran Church. He has been serving the congregation since then.
Prayer Basket
2025 JUNE PRAYER BASKET
Heavenly Father, bless our daily paths, that they may point others to faith in You. And may I serve those around me with a generous heart that reflects Your nature and love.
Lord God, we pray that You would continue to protect the rights of Christians, in Canada, to openly practice our faith in You.
We pray for our Pastors and Congregations across our Nation, asking that You would give them strength and boldness to preach Biblical truths without compromise and that congregations would receive Your truths and apply them to our lives.
We pray also for our young people in our Churches, that you would open their eyes to ways in which they can serve You in mission work.
We thank You for our Fathers and we pray Your blessing over them. We appreciate all their hard work and dedication to their families. Give them strength and wisdom for their many responsibilities and we pray also for their spiritual and physical needs.
Thank You God for Your beautiful creation for us to be blessed by and enjoy. May we be good stewards of all You have given us.
We pray for all those who are graduating, those of any age, from what ever school of learning. As they enter the next chapter of their lives, we pray for Your continued watch over them and we pray for Your guidance and leading in their ventures. May they be blessed to be a blessing and may they be a light for You.
For the hundreds of judges across Canada who rule on matters that will affect our nation for years to come, we pray that You would guide them with wisdom, justice, and righteousness.
We continue to pray for our chaotic world. We pray that You would continue to work in the hearts of all world leaders, in all sectors of society. May there be a genuine desire to compassionately care for one another.
Help me to trust You, to be faithful to You, as I wait for Your perfect timing in all things.
In Jesus name, we pray. AMEN
