Ordination in Stony Plain
STONY PLAIN, Alta. – Rev. Connor Buck was ordained at his home congregation of St. Matthew Lutheran Church in Stony Plain on June 26, 2024. The service was led by Revs. Robert Mohns and Rod Buck, and the Word was preached by Rev. Sye Van Mannen. The service included Revs. Sye Van Mannen, Mark Hennig, Roland Kubke, Mark Dressler, Keith Hoveland, Rod Buck, Jonathan Kraemer, Rob Mohns, Connor Buck, Don Schiemann, Michael Keith, James Heinbuch, Dr. Joel Heck, Dr. Jim Gimbel, and Jan Pastucha.
A special presentation of the late Rev. Linden Dressler’s stoles was made to Rev. Buck by Rev. Dressler and his mother, Gloria Dressler. The Dressler family gifted them as they are long time friends of the Buck family and were thrilled that they will continue to be used.
The congregation of St. Matthew prays that God will continue to bless Rev. Buck, Bethany, Delilah, and Bennett in Creston, B.C., where he will serve Redeemer Lutheran Church.
