LAYING ON OF HANDS IN THE BAVARIAN CONFERENCE

Marjukka Ostrovljanovic serves as pastor of the Seventh-Day Adventist church in Regensburg, Germany. In a consecration service on May 30, 2020, through the laying on of hands, the Bavarian Conference affirmed her calling to the Gospel Ministry. We are so grateful for her willing service wherever she is needed. And indeed, we have heard her as a speaker for all kinds of events: Youth congresses as well as Women's Ministries and Family Ministries summits and Conference meetings. She is an Old Testament scholar who loves to discover treasures in her Hebrew Bible, as she shows in her programs on Hope Channel "Treausure Hunt" and her participation in Bible Studiy programs. God has given her so many talents and she is using them for the glory of His Name. Thank you, Marjukka, and thanks be to God. In Marjukka we have the proof that God calls women to the ministry not only if they are single, but also needs them when they are married and have children. We are so grateful that her family supports her in her calling, making it possible for her to serve as a pastor. May God continue to bless her and her family.
