This Sunday we’ll take a one-week pause from our study of 1 Timothy for a practical application of what we’ve been learning: Pastor Rob’s ordination! Ordination is a public affirmation of God’s gifts and calling for ministry, and a commitment to support him in that service. As 1 Timothy 4:14 reminds us, “Do not neglect the gift that is in you … when the elders laid their hands on you.” Our overseer, Mark Yoder, will be with us, and Rob’s mentor Bill Hilker will share the message. Everyone is invited to gather for a fellowship meal directly after the service in the upper fellowship hall.
