Missions
Reformation Christian Ministries:
The Rev. Richard Knodel, after nearly thirty-three years in the pastorate has resigned and has decided to become a missionary with Reformation Christian Ministries. After resigning his pastorate in 2005 he spent five weeks in Scotland at the invitation of the Reformed Presbyterian Church of Scotland in Ardrie (Beth Bogue’s church). Dick and his wife Susan were interviewed and approved by the RCM board. A ministry plan has been set out which will enable the Knodel’s to assist churches committed to the Reformation of Scotland, England, France and Russia. Their home base will be Ardrie, Scotland where they will live and worship. Dick will also be part of the growing RITS team in the UK, with the aim of providing pastoral training in the UK in conjunction with Dr. Stephan Westcott in England and Dr. David Murray in Scotland and Dr. Mickael Berreby in France. His services have also been offered to the Reformed Seminary of St. Petersburg and will also be available to the Evangelical Union of Reformed Churches for summer courses in Tver, Russia, and in the next few years to their theological school in Omsk, Siberia as well as in Moscow. The objective of all this is reformation through the Gospel – applied to every area of life. Dick will assist them in raising up a generation of well trained pastors. The Knodel’s are an answer to many years of prayers on behalf of RCM. “Turn us back to You, O Lord, as we will be restored; renew our days as of old.”
