Neuharth Ordained

By Renae Young, February 19, 2020

The church service at the Glacier View Church had an extra-special feature on Feb. 18, 2020. Family, friends and members from Phillip Neuharth’s former pastoral district were in attendance for his ordination, packing the church with support and blessings.

As part of the ordination service, elders and colleagues joined Elden Ramirez, Montana Conference president, and Matthew Kirk, vice president for administration, by encircling Neuharth and laying their hands on him for a dedication prayer.

Ramirez states, "Since my arrival to the Montana Conference, I have witnessed Pastor Phillip Neuharth's sincere love and dedication for the Seventh-day Adventist Church. His hard work has produced good fruits, and it is evident that God walks before him. When you visit his district, you can see that he is loved, appreciated and respected by his church members. His wife and children are an intricate part of his ministry and together have been a great blessing to the Montana Conference. We look forward to how the Lord will continue to use him and his family in ministry until the return of our Savior."
