June 10, 2007: Commissioned by God and God’s people















On Sunday June 10th, John and Esther Prabhakar were commissioned as medical missionaries to Jerusalem by Faith Lutheran Church in Rochelle, their home congregation. Pastor Steven Dow conducted the ceremony during the morning worship service. He placed his hands over their heads, prayed and blessed them and the members of the congregation vowed their prayer support to them also. Appropriately, John sang a solo, the refrain being, “Master Thou callest, this I reply. Ready and willing, Lord, Here am I.” There was a potluck following the service when the celebration continued.
