XVI. PASTORAL RECORD

of All Pastors This Pastoral Record indicates appointments but is not necessarily a pension record.

Brackets around appointments indicate charges served prior to reception into the West Michigan Conference. (H) is the Home Address; (O) is an office address and (S) is a seasonal address. This record is maintained by Kathy Hippensteel at the Conference Center. Correspondence should be directed to her by email, kathy@wmcumc.org, or at P.O. Box 6247, Grand Rapids, MI 49516-6247. In this record R stands for year of reception into any former EUB Conference, any former Methodist Conference, or into our present United Methodist Conference or for reception into our West Michigan Conference from other conferences or denominations.

“Have you not known? Have you not heard?
DIACONAL RECORD
The Lord is the everlasting God, the creator of the ends of the earth.
He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding in unsearchable. He gives power to the faint, and strengthens the powerless.
Even youths will faint and be weary, and the young will fall exhausted; but those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strenght, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.”
Isaiah 40:28-31
