Hubei CC&TSPM hosted an ordination service at a church in Hubei.
At Gospel Church in Jiangling County, Jingzhou City, on June 29, Rev. Ding Jianghua, vice chairman and secretary general of Hubei TSPM, vice president and general secretary of the Hubei Provincial Christian Council, introduced that the church has held ordination ceremonies since ancient times for those who are willing to dedicate themselves to serve the Lord's church in the sense of stewardship. Eleven staff workers were ordained as pastors and three as elders, reported Jingzhou CC.
The pastorate presented bibles and clerical stoles to the newly ordained pastors.
Rev. Yang Shiyuan, the representative of the newly-ordained, gave a speech, thanking leaders, pastors, church workers, and family members for their help and support. With the gratitude for Lord’s protection and guidance along the way, he expressed his willingness to serve the Lord, to hold fast to the Lord's teachings and the rules of the church, to imitate Christ on the path to holiness, and to be a faithful and insightful servant to love God and people.
