Lieutenant Dion Durdle

Canada & Bermuda Territory

I have always been inspired by the history and tradition of the Salvation Army. When the Army began, it was a radical and innovative movement because it took worldly music and turned it into Godly music. As a soldier for Christ, this is what inspires my writing as I seek to draw attention to the message of the music.

In Halifax, I was a member of the Christian rock band Grounded from 2002-2007. I have had the pleasure of playing alongside other Christian artists at events across Canada. I released my first album in 2009 entitled Rock ‘n’ Roll and my second album, Praise Loud, in 2017.

God’s call on my life has been affirmed through the love I received as a part of the family of God. Growing up as an officer’s child, I experienced life and relationships in many corps where my faith was always encouraged, and I was able to grow spiritually through various ministry opportunities. Officership presents a new opportunity for me to witness and serve for the glory of God. I am a newly commissioned Lieutenant at my first appointment in Sydney, Nova Scotia.
