Presbyterian News Service -- Southern California pastor tapped to lead PC(USA) mission programs

Presbyterian News Service -- Southern California pastor tapped to lead PC(USA) mission programs:
"LOUISVILLE — The Rev. Tom Taylor, a Southern California pastor touted by colleagues as bridge-builder in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), has been named Deputy Executive Director for Mission by General Assembly Council (GAC) Executive Director Linda Valentine.

If Taylor’s appointment is confirmed by the GAC’s executive committee when it meets Dec. 7, he will begin work here Jan. 8.

Taylor, currently pastor of the 1,400-member Glenkirk Presbyterian church in Glendora, CA, will oversee all of the GAC’s mission activities, including supervision of six program directors who will be named in coming days to manage the council’s six restructured program areas. ..."

It sounds like the reorganization of the General Assembly Council staff is well on its way. I hope that our mission in the world will be enhanced by these moves.
