The commissioning of Sara Wenger Shenk as Moderator and Commemorating the Service of Richard Early

November 21, 2021 // 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Sara Wenger Shenk commissioning service


A worship service is planned to commission Sara Wenger Shenk as Virginia Mennonite Conference Moderator and commemorate Richard Early’s tenure as VMC Moderator.

When a moderator’s term ends and new moderator begins their role, a time of commemoration is dedicated at Summer Delegate Assembly to mark the leadership transition. Because this transition occurred separate from our Delegate Assembly, a special worship service has been created to install Sara and commemorate Richard’s service.

Join in-person or via live stream from Harrisonburg Mennonite Church, please join us at 2pm EST on Sunday, November 21. Access to the live stream is available at the link below. If attending in person, please wear a mask and observe social distancing.
