Pastor Ian Sweeney Elected for a TED Post

Pastor Ian Sweeney, President of the British Union Conference (BUC), has been voted to a new position of Field Secretary at the Trans-European Division (TED). The vote came about after an end of year meeting by the Division's Executive Committee members on Sunday, 14 November 2021.

Sweeney responded to his new appointment by saying, "I am very honoured and surprised to have been asked to serve as Field Secretary – although I am somewhat conflicted, as I had recently been appointed to serve a third term at the BUC. However, I believe in God's leading and both I and my wife Jennifer have always committed ourselves to respond positively whenever a call is made. So, to this end, I am keen and looking forward to this new challenge and engagement with my colleagues across the TED."
