Carole Hoke Ordination

On Sunday, May 31st, Nancy and I drove to Fondulac Congregational United Church of Christ in Peoria, Illinois, for the ordination of Carole Hoke. That is Carole on the right, with the red jacket, I am in the middle and Rev. Lauren Padgett is on the left.

It was a wonderful and carefully thought out service, with a lot of hymns. There must have been 25 clergy in the little church! Carole received a great deal of support and I was glad to be there to lay my hands on her along with the others. A beautiful day.
