This is our first in a series of posts about our various staff members! Up first is our lead pastor Sean Morton
Sean grew up on a hobby farm outside of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. He has also lived in Vancouver, on Vancouver Island in Comox in Winnipeg and Edmonton. Sean has been at ANC for 1.5 years and what brought him to ANC was that he felt God calling him into the lead pastor position; at the same time, ANC was looking for a new lead pastor. He applied and was offered the job.
What kept Sean at ANC was “Sensing God’s hand in our move as well as the good work we have been doing through the church in the community. Also feeling the privilege of working with a wonderful supportive congregation.” What Sean enjoys most about his job is being able to work with people and motivating them to follow Jesus their whole lives. Sean enjoys lots of outside sports and time at the gym. He has been married to his wife Tracey for 27 years, and they have two children together. His daughter is enrolled in graduate studies in gerontology at the University of Waterloo, and his son is working on his degree in supply chain management in Edmonton. A fun fact about Sean is that even though he mostly grew up a city boy, he can drive heavy-duty farming equipment! His favourite scripture is Phillippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
