Rev Bill Pindar

(Stony Point, NY)--The director of Stony Point Center steps aside to create a bridge to new leadership for “a new way for a new day.”

In his remarks to the General Assembly Council committee in Louisville on February 14, 2008, Rev. William Pindar stated “It is with a heart full of hope in the future and memories full of joy and accomplishment that I, at my own initiative, announce my decision to step aside as director of Stony Point Center and conclude eleven years of employment with the Center.”

Pindar will remain in the office until June 30, 2008 and formally terminate on July 31, 2008. In speaking with the GAC’s Stewardship & Mission Support and the Spirituality & Discipleship committees, Pindar reflected upon a statement made by Gracie Allen to her husband, George Burns, as her life was coming to a close. “George! Never put a period where God has placed a comma.” Pindar continued, “Stony Point Center’s legacy of mission is not at an end. It is at a transitional comma time. The remarkable service of the Center with its many guests and current groups will continue as the new vision unfolds.”
