DCE Day with Bill Karpenko

Our podcast today features Bill Karpenko. Over the years, Bill has been called a congregational DCE, a missionary in Japan and Nigeria, a Chicago taxi cab driver, worked with trouble-prone teens in Chicago, a professor and university administrator, and in these latter years a Founder of KINDLE. He is a Beloved and Baptized Child of God. To see the show notes, head to https://nadce.wildapricot.org/resources/Podcasts/Podcast%20w_%20Bill.docx.pdf

NADCE regularly offers podcasts that focus on topics in ministry as practical resources for those serving in the Lutheran church as DCEs. Our hope is that our podcasts will encourage those listening in their calling and equip and strengthen them in their ministry area.
