NANCY KNEPPER ENDS TERM AS DISTRICT MINISTRY COORDINATOR

Nancy F. Knepper, coordinator of District Ministry for the Church of the Brethren’s Ministry Office, has completed her term of service with the denomination. The position of coordinator of District Ministry was eliminated as part of a re-evaluation of the needs of the Ministry Office.

Nancy started working for the Church of the Brethren General Board in Feb. 1989 as director of Outdoor Ministries in a half-time position through 1997. She served briefly as interim coordinator of the General Board’s ministry team. Before coming to Elgin she was administrator and manager of Camp Ithiel in Gotha, Fla., and administered Atlantic Southeast District’s outdoor ministries program. She graduated from Juniata College in Huntingdon, Pa., and holds a master’s degree from Shippensburg (Pa.) State College. Nancy Knepper is an ordained minister in the Church of the Brethren.

Any services or functions previously handled by Ms. Knepper should be channeled through Mary Jo Flory-Steury, executive director of the Ministry Office.
