A pastor was appointed as a deputy senior pastor and administrative director of a church before the national flags in China's eastern-coastal Jiangsu Province.
On November 19, Rev. Kuai Mo solemnly took on the duties of his office, including daily administration work, while putting her hand on the Bible before the national flag in Xiangcheng Church, Suzhou, according to Suzhou CC&TSPM.
Rev. Gu Yuntao, deputy chairman and general secretary of the Suzhou CC&TSPM, read the appointment letter during the ceremony held at the local Xiangcheng Church.
Senior Pastor He Jiemiao, chairman and president of the Suzhou CC&TSPM said the work of the pastoring and administration should be kept separate, and that the division of labor was implemented but the church - God's family was not divided up. Having an administrative director met the requirements of modern society and satisfied the need for careful management within the church.

11月19日在相城堂举行蒯沫担任苏州市相城基督教堂副主任牧师、行政主任(主持日常工作)的任职仪式。
据苏州基督教两会报道,仪式由市两会办公室主任于华伟牧师主持,市两会副主席兼秘书长顾云涛牧师宣读任命书,蒯沫牧师手按圣经庄严宣誓任职。
苏州市两会主席/会长何介苗牧师作劝勉讲话。
何牧师说需开展教会创新管理模式,提出教会牧养与行政事工的分开。设立行政主任一职,既与时俱进的社会要求,也体现教会精细化管理的需要。教会虽然有分工,但分工不分家,这个家就是教会——神的家。作为教会的管理者,要尽心尽力、尽职尽责把神的家管理好,服侍好。
