Good News: Roger Whitfield Receives Lettie Pate Award
Posted by Kimberly Allen
This week, we have a special celebration as part of our ongoing effort to share good news. Roger Whitfield, part of our Global Missions Team, was named one of two recipients of the prestigious Lettie Pate Whitehead Evans Award by Virginia Theological Seminary. He was recognized for his work with the Water Project in Mwitikira.
From the release announcing the winners:
This award celebrates the vitally important ministry of the laity in the church and beyond. The award is given each year by the Seminary to honor an Episcopal layperson who, over a significant period of time, has given leadership and unique witness to the Gospel of Jesus Christ within his or her congregation, community, Diocese and in the world.
Congratulations, Roger!
You can keep up with the activities of St. Paul's pilgrims in Mwitikira on the "Live from Around the World" blog, with Roger's wife Sandra also posting about ongoing efforts to build relationships in Central Tanganyika.
