In April, Angelina Wood began a new role as the Oregon Conference risk management director. She fills the spot left vacant when Barbara Livesay, departed to join her husband Don Livesay, now president of the Lake Union Conference based in Berrien Springs, Mich. Previously Wood served the conference as an associate director for children's ministries and also directed the Adventurer ministry, which, due to current budgetary constraints, will not be filled at this time.
Wood shares, “It has been an enriching experience. I also know the Lord is taking me into another chapter where He has given me a different “trust.”
Originally from Chile, Wood has also served as an educator and leader in conferences in Northern California, Southern California and at Andrews University.
Sherri Uhrig, children’s ministries director, and Gloria Beerman, children’s ministries administrative assistant, will continue to provide Adventurers with support and resources as needed.
