New pastor to be installed on April 26

The community is invited to the installation service April 26 of the Rev. Terra Pennington to pastor of The Sanctuary Place.

The Sanctuary Place at 3500 Dodson St., Kansas City, Kan., is a new open and affirming worshiping community that seeks to holistically collaborate with other faith communities, nonprofits and civic leaders in Wyandotte County. It is on the site of the old United Church of the Good Shepherd.

Pennington graduated from San Francisco Theological Seminary with a passion for finding new and creative ways to do church. The service will take place at 4 p.m. April 26. A light supper will follow.

The Heartland Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church USA is sponsoring the new Sanctuary Place.
