We are glad to introduce our new Dean of Students: Ryan DelBlanc! As part of our Student Development team, Ryan is looking forward to supporting and encouraging students as they grow in their character, capacity, and calling. With nearly 20 years of ministry background as a youth pastor, associate pastor, lead pastor, and most recently a Chaplain, Rev. DelBlanc will bring his experience and passion to the college community.

Ryan believes in the next generation and has a track record of empowering and releasing young leaders into ministry. He also believes in the local church and desires to “build the church by helping build healthy leaders.” With overflowing optimism and a love for people, Ryan is a welcome addition to our talented and caring staff and faculty.

Born, raised, and residing in Surrey (Affectionately referred to as “God’s City”), he will bring a deep and connected understanding of the context and opportunities around our campuses. He and his wife, Astrid, enjoy tasty food, walking their anxious dog Tucker, travelling, spending time with loved ones, and cheering their favourite football club – the Vancouver Whitecaps.

Take a moment to welcome Ryan to the Pacific Life community.
