The Ordination of Brother Stille

The last weekend of October found us driving through some of the most beautiful fall colors we had seen this year.  We made our way via Rockford, IL to Michigan for our son-in-law, Brad's ordination.  

Dwight was asked to be on the council along with Brad's brother and pastor friends from the area.  It was such a blessing listening to Brad read his doctrinal statement and then answer questions asked by the council. They recommended 100% to go ahead with the formal ordination.

The deacons of the church along with their wives  took the council members and wives out for dinner after the meeting.  It was a great time of fellowship and fun.

Brad's friend, Dr. John from South Carolina, was the moderator and then preached on Sunday morning.  Brad asked his dad-in-law to preach Sunday night.  We also were able to sing in the morning service and play for Mari and Brad when they sang in the evening.

Sunday evening after the service there was a reception for Brad.
