One of North Park's Finest leaves for Duke

Our very good friend Dr. Roger Velasquez his wife Anne Norris and their son Alexander have accepted a call to ministry in North Carolina. Roger served in North Park as Senior Pastor of Trinity United Methodist Church for many years and is keen to continue serving in ministry. The Lord having heard Roger’s cry delivered a position at Duke University Medical Center where he will serve as Sr. Chaplain of Pastoral Services. Pastoral Services, in partnership with the rest of the healthcare team, provides spiritual and religious care for patients, families, caregivers, visitors and staff throughout Duke University Medical Center. Through clinical pastoral care and education, Pastoral Services manifests the spiritual dimension of the hospital's mission within the Duke University Medical Center, facilitates collaboration between the Medical Center and Duke Divinity School, and strengthens the relationship between the Medical Center and the religious communities at large.

Please keep These three in prayer as they have less than one month to pack up, ship out, move out and sell their house in a real estate climate that is other than optimal.

We will miss you and trust the Lord to provide all your needs according to his riches in glory.
