Sheldon is the oldest son of Don and Betty Sitter, a couple who raised their family of six children on a farm in Northern Saskatchewan. Sheldon’s parents were baptized in 1969. Sheldon graduated from the Pasadena campus of Ambassador College in 1990 after taking an extra year to teach English in Thailand. After AC he went on to earn a degree in engineering, and then worked in various countries around the world. Sheldon now lives back on the family farm in Saskatchewan and pastors congregations in western Canada. He is the proud dad of one adult son, and whenever they get together they like to spend their spare time fishing and farming.
