      Caderma elected as the fifth president of the Southern Asia-Pacific Division

      June 11, 2022

      The 61st General Conference Session Nominating Committee elected Elder Roger Caderma as the president of the Southern Asia- Pacific Division replacing Elder Saw Samuel. He was recently elected as one of the Associate Secretaries of the General Conference.

      Early in Caderma's ministry, God called Him to be a soldier for Christ. He pursued theology at Mountain View College in the Philippines in 1984. He earned a master’s degree in Public Health from Adventist International Institute for Advanced Studies (AIIAS) in 1999. He then received his certificate as a Certified Trust Services and Planned Giving Officer in Colorado Spring, Denver, the USA, in 2005.

      Since he was called to serve in the ministry in 1988, Elder Caderma has served as a district pastor, church pastor, department director, president of the South Philippine Union Conference, and currently as the Vice President of the Southern Asia-Pacific Division for NDR-IEL. Caderma is married to Danita. Both are enthusiastically serving God in different responsibilities God has given them.
