LEBANESE MINISTER ELECTED WCRC PRESIDENT
The Rev Najla Kassab, a minister in the National Evangelical Synod of Syria and Lebanon (NESSL), has been elected president of the World Communion of Reformed Churches (WCRC), which groups more than 225 churches in over 110 countries.
“With her experience and many gifts, Najla’s vision, insight, spiritual strength and grace make her the right person to lead us forward as president,” said the Rev Alison McDonald of the Church of Scotland, moderator of a Nominating Committee that brought a slate of nominees for the WCRC Executive Committee to its General Council.
