Exchange Pastor

On Sunday, March 1st, we were blessed at our English worship service at Meito Christ International Church.  We had a guest pastor from South Carolina, Rev. Robert T. Byrne preach.  Pastor Byrne is the first “exchange pastor” from the South Carolina Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) to serve the JELC or Japanese Evangelical Lutheran Church.  He and his spouse, Chris are on exchange for six months (October 1, 2008 – March 31, 2009) and are now visiting the “Tokai” district (one of five districts of the JELC) and thankfully, I was able to have him preach on Sunday, March 1st.  Rev. Byrne serves as pastor at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Aiken, South Carolina.

Pastor Byrne is providing a blog of his time in Japan.  It can be found at: http://scepreports.blogspot.com
