Grateful for outgoing and incoming EMC office staff

The past number of years have seen significant staff changes in the EMC office. One of the consistent staff members for the past 19 years was Erica Fehr. She filled numerous roles in her time here, finishing as director of communications and managing editor of The Messenger. Erica retired at the end of November. She loved the written word and enjoyed working with authors and promoting voices of those that were often marginalized. Her experience and corporate memory will be missed as she moves on to her next chapter in life.

Also announcing his resignation is Peter Doerksen. Peter has filled the role of western ambassador for the last few years. Peter’s experience, calm demeanor, and warm personal touch were appreciated by the western churches he connected with.

With the resignations comes some sadness but also excitement as new individuals are now drawn into these roles. Scott Marble has been hired as the new director of communications and began his role in January. Scott comes with extensive communications experience and just completed his Master of Arts at Providence in December.

This coming fall, Ed Peters, currently the pastor at Burns Lake Island Gospel Fellowship in B.C., will take on the role of western ambassador. Ed has been involved in the conference at different levels and will bring his experience and existing relationships with the Region 1 and 2 churches to this position.

God has always been faithful in bringing people to Conference positions. Please pray for the staff as we seek to provide leadership and support to enhance the work of our conference.
