The World Missions Committee has approved a status change for Connely Dyrud. Connely has been living in the US serving as Missionary at Large while he lead the Ministry Training Institute program at AFLBS. Missionary Dyrud will now be considered Missionary Emeritus.
As Missionary Emeritus he will volunteer his time and talents for AFLC World Missions. Connely has offered to speak at mission’s events and WMF Rallies as needed. The World Missions Department has asked that congregations and individuals continue to give to his personal support. Even though this is a volunteer position we will continue to provide ministry expenses from his personal support.
We thank God for the service of Rev. Dyrud to world missions over the last 42 years.
