Eugene Estil will be ordained from 2pm this afternoon in the Big Tent we would love to see you there if you are able. So scoff your haystacks and see you at 2 as we celebrate Gods calling and leading in Eugene’s life.
In the Seventh-day Adventist Church, ordination is the public recognition that God has called and equipped a pastor for lifelong gospel ministry. It does not create the calling or confer superior spiritual status; rather, the church confirms that calling after years of service, examination, and evidence of character, theological soundness, pastoral competence, and fruitfulness. The process normally involves recommendation by conference leaders, approval by the conference executive committee, Australian conference presidents and the AUC. Ordination authorizes full pastoral functions throughout the worldwide church and expresses trust, accountability, unity, and mission.
