Celebrating Change - Dawn Himer

Celebrating Change

It is with both sad and glad hearts that we announce the resignation of Dawn Himer as CEO of Adeara. Although we are sad to let her go, we are excited for her future and pray God’s richest blessings on her and her family.

Here are excerpts from the announcement letters sent from Mark Evans, Chairman of the Board, and Dawn herself.

On behalf of the Board of Directors of Adeara, I would like to advise you that Dawn Himer has resigned her position as CEO, effective September 14, 2018. We are excited about her and her family’s future in Kelowna and their new ventures.

The Board is currently searching for an Executive Director to join our team. It’s critically important to us that we find the right leader to join us on our journey of expanding and helping more women in

Edmonton. We covet your prayers as we embark on the search for our next leader, and as we transition our board, our team of professionals, and our precious residents of Adeara.

We are privileged to have you partner with us as together we reach women in need. May God Bless you for your prayers, your financial support, and your friendship.

Mark Evans, Chairman of the Board

A message from Dawn

Dear Friends,

I would like to personally say, “Thank You,” for your kindness and engagement in Adeara over the years. It has been a blessing and an honour to experience lives transformed through God who is our strength and the foundation on which we serve.

As you know, change is a part of life, and we here at Adeara embrace change. I will be embarking on my own ‘change journey’ with my husband, Greg, and have made the decision to move to Kelowna (a dream we’ve had for our family for some time now). Although I will deeply miss my Adeara family, we know this is our next season and are excited about our future in Kelowna.

Adeara, like its name means, is a place of strength and hope for the future. We are in good hands with a visionary board, a staff of talented professionals, and a commitment to grow forward.

My heart is full of love, passion, and resolve to ensure this strong program will continue. I love Adeara and everything it stands for, and it has been an honour to be a part of this amazing journey.

Thank you for the incredible opportunity to have served you, our community, and the beautiful women in our care! I am so grateful!

Dawn Himer
