The 42nd General Council elects new Moderator
Rev. Jordan Cantwell Elected Moderator
Commissioners at the 42nd General Council of the United Church of Canada being held in Corner Brook, Newfoundland elected the Rev. Jordan Cantwell to be Moderator. The process took most of August 13th because five ballots were needed to reach this outcome. She was installed to the position during closing worship on August 14th. She holds the position until the next General Council meeting in three years time.
