On January 30, 2011 Dan was ordained as a Minister of the Word and Sacrament. The service and reception were held at our church, this was such a sweet time with our relatives and church family. We glorify GOD as HE is the one who has carried us through many years of schooling and preparation to equip Dan for the pastorate.

| When we begain this journey, Graham was a baby...now we are a family of five! Side note: The sash Dan is wearing is very meaningful to him. Two (graduated) students in our youth group visited Ghana several years ago on a mission trip, and brought this back for Dan. He promised them he would wear it for the first time at his ordination. It is handmade and I think it is so intricate and beautiful! |
