Guangxi CC&TSPM hosted an ordination service for five pastors and one elder.

During a Sunday service held on October 30 in Emmanuel Church affiliated with Guangxi CC&TSPM, Rev. Wang Conglian, chairman of the provincial CC&TSPM preached a sermon titled "Submit to God", citing Genesis 32: 22-31, said the provincial CC&TSPM.

Based on Jacob’s blessed life of receiving his father’s blessing with a trick, wrestling with God, and following His will, Wang encouraged the candidates waiting to be ordained and believers to have a correct attitude in the process of encountering and seeking God, submit to, rely on, and follow the Lord who offers unconditional love.

The pastorate laid hands on six church workers after they shared their understanding of the office to which they were called, putting holy robes on them with the Bible being presented. In his speech, Rev. Wang exhorted the newly ordained persons to be faithful and wise servants to bear the Lord’s yoke.
