Ordaining a Shepherd of Jesus' Flock

 

Yesterday I had the privilege of participating in an ordination service for a pastor in Riobamba. It was a meaningful ceremony and moving to see another pastor dedicate his life for serving the church. Since pictures and video are available on Facebook, I decided to share some of it with you!

Pastor Roberto (and his wife) came before other mature leaders in their church association.
I shared a message from 1 Timothy 4 on the character of a pastor.
Roberto received several important and symbolic gifts. I was chosen to present him with a new poncho.
He even received a sheep to represent his responsibility to care for God's flock.
We gathered around to pray for him.
Several choirs gave special music.
We enjoyed a good meal afterward!
If you want to see some video here are the recordings available on Facebook:
The ceremony

The meal and an interview with Pastor Roberto.
Pray for Pastor Roberto and others like him who are working to reach more of their people for Christ.
