Seeking “Call” and “Send” stories for LINK



Susquehanna LINK is looking for stories about pastors’ calls to ministry. God calls us all to work alongside Him, but sometimes the calling is higher to a role of shepherd, teacher, leader. How did God call you? Who did He send to mentor you? Who inspired you? Where did the call lead you? What are the greatest blessings in your calling? What church nurtured you?

Those persons “called” need to be affirmed, encouraged, nurtured, supported, and recommended by local churches ... is yours one of those “sending” churches? Who have you “sent” into ministry? Who have been key mentors in your congregation? How do you affirm someone’s call to ministry?

Please share your story in 1,000 words or less and send a photo or two to accompany it (candidate with mentors, ordination, supporting church, current appointment, administering sacraments) to speiffer@susumc.org.
