Dexter LeBlanc passed away in peace while at his home in Lacombe on January 7, 
2013.

Dexter decided to go into the ministry in 1976 so he moved his family to Keene, 
Texas where he began ministerial school. After 4 years of college, work and 
raising 6 kids he graduated as an honor roll student with a bachelor’s degree 
in theology in 1982. 
Dexter went on to preach for the Lord in various locations and had a special 
love for evangelism. 
Dexter was blessed to get a pastoral calling in 1996 to preach back home in 
south Louisiana where he was born and raised. He has been a pastor of 3 Seventh 
Day Adventist churches in this area (Slidell, Mandeville and Hammond) for the 
past 16 years.

Dexter was greatly loved and will be greatly missed by his family, friends, and 
those souls whom he helped win for the Lord.
