I had the privilege of attending the Ecclesiastical Council of a gentleman who is going to make an outstanding pastor: Craig Henderson. Lisa Sampson, who is a member of the Scottsdale Church where the Council was held, presided over the examination.

Craig is about to graduate next month from Lancaster Theological Seminary, and expressed a real passion for Worship and Education in ministry, and is looking forward to his first calling to serve a church in the United Church of Christ. His father was a teacher, and his mother a librarian - he loves to read!

We wish him well in his Search, and in his ministry, and will be proud to Ordain him when his call to a church is completed.
