PASTOR SAMUEL & HANNAH DIPRETE

Pastor Samuel DiPrete serves as the pioneering pastor of The Potter’s House in Albany, New York. Raised in a home where church was a regular part of life, Sam knew about God but had never experienced a personal relationship with Him. After years of internal struggle—including addiction, depression, self-hatred, and suicidal thoughts—he came to a breaking point. In a moment of desperation, he cried out to God, ready to give up on life. It was in that moment that Sam encountered the life-changing power and presence of Jesus Christ. Transformed by the power of Jesus Christ, he fully surrendered his life to Christ and began to serve Him wholeheartedly. He was discipled in his home church in Hyannis, Massachusetts where he learned to minister to others, believe for the supernatural, developed people skills, and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

In 2017, Sam married his wife, Hannah, who has stood faithfully by his side through his transformation and calling. Together with their two children, they answered the call of God and were launched out of the 2025 Northeast Bible Conference to establish a new church in Albany, New York. A city full of destiny that God is doing a powerful work in.

With a heart for the broken and a passion to see lives transformed, Pastor Sam is committed to preaching the truth, making disciples,  and planting churches that will impact surrounding cities, regions, and nations beyond.
