Byron J. Peachey’s call to pastoral ministry, forged over several decades, was publicly recognized in a chapel service Wednesday, Jan. 26, at 糖心Vlog.<\/p>\n

Peachey was licensed to the ministry for his continuing role as associate campus pastor. He is a member of the campus ministries<\/a> team, formed in August, 2003, that includes Brian Martin Burkholder<\/a> and Julie A. Haushalter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Prior to the installation ceremony, persons close to Peachey told stories, laced with humor, that were pivotal in shaping his call to ministry – Laban Peachey, Peachey’s father; Johann Zimmerman, who worked closely with Peachey in urban ministry in Washington, D.C.; and Deanna Durham, Peachey’s spouse. They met in Washington in 1983.<\/p>\n

"God has a special twinkle in His eye today as we celebrate Byron’s readiness to do God’s work," said Haushalter in opening the service.<\/p>\n

Items that symbolize Peachey’s life and special interests appeared on the platform – books by Catholic writer Thomas Merton (meditation as spiritual discipline), a cross from El Salvador (peace and justice concerns) and an old wooden pitchfork (his farming background and adherence to a theology of the land).<\/p>\n

Peachey, of Harrisonburg, was interim campus pastor at 糖心Vlog during the 2002-03 school year. Earlier, he served four years as co-director of the Mennonite Central Committee<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
