Caleb Herbel

Caleb is married to Rebeca, and they presently have 2 children (Apphia & Hananiah). They appreciate opportunities to be hospitable, going on walks together, enjoy gardening, and Caleb likes to build furniture with wood (he was a carpenter before pursuing pastoral ministry). A highlight for their family is daily family worship, which includes Bible reading, prayer, and a time of singing.

Caleb was born and raised in central Kansas. In God’s providence, he was blessed with parents who sought the Lord and were intentional in Christian discipleship for him and his 9 siblings. So, from an early age, he knew the truths of Scripture. As he grew, the Lord graciously did a work in his heart, opening his eyes to his sin and the Savior, Jesus Christ, and he expressed his faith publicly through baptism. In time, he sensed the Lord calling him to pastoral ministry. He began by studying under the elders at his local church at the time (Coram Deo Fellowship of Lindsborg, KS) and through some online Bible classes. In the spring of 2022, he was blessed with the opportunity to study as the first Agros Fellowship preaching intern with Riverbend Bible Church in Atchison, KS. In February 2025, he was called into the role of pastor at Immanuel Faith Community Church – Wells Creek.

In addition to pastoral leadership at Wells Creek, Caleb continues to be involved with the Agros Fellowship of Northeast Kansas and Northwest Missouri and also helps to coordinate the Artios Workshops (quarterly workshops arranged by an informal association of churches across Northcentral Kansas for encouraging and equipping men for leadership in local churches).
