Stole Text

Unfortunately, my stole must remain anonymous.  May this stole be a reminder of the constant pain one experiences in the daily sacrifice of self for Christ's ministry.  May God bring us finally together as one family of faith in ministry.

Contribution Story

All we know about this anonymous minister is that he was given this stole as an ordination gift.  The mint green polyester double-knit material leads me to believe that this pastor must have been ordained sometime in the late 1960's or 1970's.
