David's Ordination

/

Today, we celebrated the ordination of Rev. David Nakmoo Jun at ICC. A native of Chungnam Nonsan, Korea, David has been assisting with the ministry at ICC for many years, and also pastors a small Korean-language congregation, Allston Korean Church.

David’s candidacy was approved by a vote of the Samuel Stillman Association of the American Baptist Churches of Massachusetts (TABCOM) in January. Today, TABCOM Executive Minister Mary Day Miller presented David with a certificate documenting his ordination by the denomination. Many Stillman Association clergy were present for today’s service, which included a sermon by Rev. Jon Hevelone of the First Baptist Church of Arlington.

What would a Baptist gathering be without food? After the service, we enjoyed a variety of Korean dishes prepared by David’s wife Ellen Haekyung Jun.
