During these forty years Bishop Moses served in the roles of church planter, chaplain, pastor, architect, teacher, administrator, author, editor, historian, lyricist, Bible College director, conference superintendent, and field director for India. Quite a r\u00e9sum\u00e9!<\/p>\n Third but not least, the event was held on the 39th<\/sup> wedding anniversary of Bishop Moses and his wife Dora, who has been his valuable partner in every ministry endeavor. They are the parents of two daughters and two sons, and delight in their four (soon to be five) grandchildren.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" By Russell Board January 11th was a significant and memorable day for Presiding Bishop Dr. B.
