Leadership Staff at Celebration Church

Pastors John and Linda Oebel met in 1972 at International Bible College where they were attending and pursuing God’s plan for their lives. Linda being from Grangeville, Idaho and John from San Antonio, Texas, were married the following summer after they met. After finishing Bible college, they moved to Grangeville, Idaho where they started their work in the ministry. They were blessed with additions to their family of 3 sons, Joshua John, Jacob James, and Dustin Michael. They have served in areas of ministry from youth pastors, Sunday school teachers, children church leaders, associate pastors, men’s and women’s ministry, lead pastors, and support staff. They went where God lead them from Idaho, California, Texas and back to the LC Valley. God has now led them to a new position as Pastors here in the Lewis-Clark Valley at Celebration Church to help the community in embracing their faith, sharing the hope of Jesus Christ, and spreading God’s Love.
