“Crafting Shared Ministry: The Installation of Rev. Ian W. Riddell as UUCOD’s Settled Minister”

An Installation Service is an opportunity for a congregation and its settled minister to formally acknowledge and celebrate the new beginning in their shared ministry and to ponder together a shared vision of ministry. The service involves a ritual of installation, a wonderful sermon from a colleague and mentor of Rev. Ian’s, words and music from our congregation and from some of the ministers in our region, and even the exchange of some gifts in honor of the new shared ministry. And it’s a chance for a party, too! Join us for this wonderful service and a fabulous reception afterwards.
