A Shepherd with Heart and Humor

Pastor Geber served for many years as a devoted spiritual leader of the German-speaking community in Vancouver, Canada. Known for his compassionate nature and deep commitment to his congregation, he often went the extra mile—sometimes quite literally—to connect with people.

One memorable episode remained in the hearts of many. Pastor Geber had planned to visit a couple in Surrey. Since he had never been to their home before and didn’t want to be late, he left early. The weather was beautiful, and the street was quiet, so he decided to lie down on the grass by the roadside to relax. He fell asleep.

What happened next could have come straight out of a mystery novel: A boy riding his bike saw a man lying motionless in the grass and immediately called the police. Within minutes, officers and concerned residents arrived—relieved to discover that it wasn’t another murder case. Just a few weeks earlier, a deceased person had been found in that very area.

Pastor Geber woke up in the middle of the commotion—surprised but unharmed. The situation quickly turned into a moment of shared laughter and relief. The story became a beloved anecdote about a pastor who not only served with all his heart but also carried a good dose of calm and humor through life.
