02 Apr National Conference Elections

Members of the nominating committee (l-r): Kevin Cherry, Jody Harr, Craig Burkholder, Greg Helman, Randy Carpenter.

A nominating committee is at work developing two ballots for the upcoming US National Conference:

1. Bishop. Every four years, we elect a bishop. This is the year for that.
2. ELT members. Every two years, we elect 8 members of the Executive Leadership Team–a minister and a layperson from each of the four regions. (Here is the current ELT.)

The nominating committee consists of:

• Kevin Cherry (chairman), senior pastor of Heart O the Lakes UB in Brooklyn, Mich.
• Jody Harr, senior pastor of First UB church in Van Wert, Ohio.
• Craig Burkholder, senior pastor of Hudson UB church in Hudson, Ind.
• Greg Helman, senior pastor of Blue Rock UB church in Waynesboro, Pa.
• Randy Carpenter, senior pastor of Sunfield UB church in Sunfield, Mich.

The nominating committee will present its report directly to the National Conference. When the report is finalized (probably not until May or June), it will be published on the US National Conference website under the “Business” tab.
