January 2019

On Sunday, January 6, 2019, I had the honor of being installed by the Consistory of Chiesa Riformata Filadelfia (the Reformed church in Milan, Italy) as minister of the Word and sacraments. Using an Italian version of the URCNA form for installation, elder Vittorio Calderaro read the form and delivered the charge to me and the congregation. I felt the weight of responsibility for this awesome task as I publicly affirmed my sense of call and gave my promise to labor as diligent workman: “Io credo and lo prometto, con l’aiuto di Dio” (“I believe and do promise, with the help of God”).
