Andre Hastick Elected Chesapeake Conference Executive Secretary

Story by Chesapeake Conference Staff

Last evening, the Chesapeake Conference Executive Committee elected Andre Hastick to the position of Chesapeake Conference executive secretary. Hastick accepted the call, filling the vacancy left by Jerry Lutz, who was recently elected to serve as Chesapeake Conference president. The executive committee convened virtually for the session, chaired by Elder Lutz.

Hastick began his ministry in Chesapeake in 2011 when he accepted a call to serve as pastor of the Aberdeen (Md.) Seventh-day Adventist Church. Two years later, he went on to serve as pastor of the Reisterstown and South Carroll Seventh-day Adventist churches, both located in Maryland.

In 2017, he was elected by the Chesapeake Conference Executive Committee to serve as communication director, and then voted as assistant to the president for communication in 2020. Elder Hastick will take up his secretariat responsibilities, effective February 22, 2021.

“I am very pleased with the Executive Committee’s decision to invite Elder Hastick to be our Conference Executive Secretary, and look forward to continue working with him in his new position," says Jerry Lutz." With his excellent leadership skills and pastoral experience, he will be a great addition to our administrative team, and a blessing to the members of Chesapeake.”
