Ed Stuckey
Title on Board: Chair
Family: Married to Jan Stuckey for 54+ years
Home Church: The Gathering Church
Occupation: presently semiretired, my life has been about teaching and pastoring – Interim Exec Dir of BGC Canada, Assoc Pastor of The Gathering, adjunct teaching with ACTS Seminaries and interim president of Canadian Baptist Seminary, pastor of Ellerslie Road Baptist Church, and pastor of Grace Bible Church in Dauphin, MB. Before that, I was a history teacher in London, ON.
Past Experience with LPC: Along the way, I have been actively involved with two Christian camps – Dauphin Bible Camp (5 years as Board member, chair, and director of Family Camp), and Lone Prairie (23 years as pastor of a supporting church, then 10 more with other BGC ministries). I hugely value the work of LPC through the years, and recognize its enduring contribution to a host of young, but maturing lives. This is clearly a new and challenging era for Christian camping with a host of new issues to process.
Past Experience on the LPC Board (if any): This is my fourth year serving on the LPC Board, second as Chair

Occupation: I work to identify user needs, empathize with them, and create productive and enjoyable product experiences as a User Experience Manager for Emerson Electric. I continue to be passionate about building leaders for our community.
Past Experience with LPC: My eldest fell in love with LPC after his first camp and has been a camp ambassador to his siblings and friends ever since. I was really impressed by the questions he asked and the desire he had to learn about God when he came home. I have also volunteered with my family and church during adopt-a-week. And I have seen LPC changing the lives of many in my church who have attended as volunteers, campers, CLT’s, and leaders.
Past Experience on the LPC Board (if any): This is my third year serving on the LPC board.

Occupation: I work as a reliability engineer for Imperial Oil at Strathcona Refinery
Past Experience with LPC: I attended LPC as a camper for many years, later transitioning into LPC’s Leadership Training (CLT) program.
