Shepherd's Chariot
Sem Beasnael - Co-Founder/Executive Director
Sem Beasnael serves as Shepherd’s Chariot’s Executive Director and co-founder. Sem is a pastor, educator, and author who has committed the greater half of his life serving the Lord.
Sem’s lifelong pursuit of serving God and providing education and pastoral services through his own dreams and visions began as a ministry student in Chad. Sem experienced firsthand the hardships of accessing proper training and education in his own backyard. After being inspired by his father in law, who walked 621 miles in search of biblical resources, Sem knew that there had to be an easier way to spread the word to those who seek it out.
In his time of serving he has witnessed pastors who strive to graze the word of God despite lack of financial means, wars, and terrorist activity that often push people to become refugees
Pastor Beasnael serves as an elder and lead pastor of Eglise No 8 in Tchad, is a director of education, and holds a ThM and MCA from Dallas Theological Seminary
Sem resides in Moundou, Tchad with his wife, Eunice Beasnael. Together they have five children and three grandchildren
Eunice Beasnael: Co-Founder/ Program Director
Eunice Beasnael serves as Shepherd’s Chariot’s Program Director.
Eunice’s dedication to God’s word began by being a witness to her parents’ ministry in their church in Chad, Central Africa. Her involvement in women’s ministries at a young age led her to serve in hospitals as a nursing midwife helping to deliver children under dire circumstances.
During her time of servitude, she came to understand that despite floods, lack of food, socio-political issues, climate concerns which still steadily cause fires that wipe out provisions and biblical documents, God's servants still sought out the word and Biblical resources. It became clear to her that she wanted to help them by providing training assistance and the necessary materials.
Eunice is a retired nurse and spearheads the women’s and children’s ministry at her church.
Eunice resides in Moundou, Tchad with her husband, Pastor Beasnael Sem. Together they have five children and three grandchildren.
