Daniel Le Forestier
Worship Pastor
Daniel is the Hebron Church Worship Pastor and is responsible for both overseeing and directing the worship environment at Hebron. Daniel is very gifted as a musician and vocalist, and seeks to use those God-given talents to help lead others in worship as they encounter God. As we seek to be a Church of passionate disciples that makes passionate disciples, worship is an essential component in the life of all disciples of Jesus. It is worship–encountering the living God in a manner that elicits praise for Him–that transforms us. It is Daniel’s prayer that you would encounter God in this way.

George & Janice Zhao
Mandarin Pastor
George joined the Hebron staff team in October 2015 when he started leading the Mandarin Ministry at Hebron. Since that time the ministry has grown substantially and continues to see lives changed by the Gospel every day. In September 2016 George was examined and ordained as a Commissioned Pastor in the Christian Reformed Church. It has been a joy to work with George and his wife Janice, and we pray that God continues to bless their ministry.

Judy Uden
Office Administrator
Judy is very administratively gifted and is an essential asset to the Hebron team. If there is something going on with regard to the facilities or events at Hebron chances are Judy knows and is intimately involved in its planning. Often good administration can go unnoticed because we don’t notice administration till it goes bad. But here at Hebron we recognize that smoothness is because Judy has been working hard.

GOVERNANCE
Hebron Church is governed by members of the Congregation who have been elected to the office of either Elder or Deacon. In order to enable Elders and Deacons to flourish in their offices, Hebron has differentiated the tasks of these Elders and Deacons. Though the tasks may differ, the honour does not, and so there is no hierarchy in these offices.
Hebron Council is composed of Administrative Elders, Administrative Deacons, Pastoral Elders and Community Partner Deacons.
