Dr. PIPIM’S RESIGNATION
On May 23, 2011, Dr. Pipim resigned as Director of Public Campus Ministries and from the employment of the Michigan Conference. This was followed by his public announcement to his colleagues in ministry and his CAMPUS Staff (http://campushope.com/resignation/).
Though resigning from his present work, his ministry to students and young people, as well as his ministry of the Word by voice and pen, are far from finished. Pray that God will speedily renew his strength and reveal where He would have him minister. Visit the Drpipim.org website for updates.
