WAVERLY, Iowa—On Nov. 21, at the request of Horton Baptist Church, a council of 25 messengers representing 17 churches convened from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. to examine Stephen Moore’s qualifications for ordination into the gospel ministry. The council, including Pastor James Ackerson (moderator) and Pastor Jeff Holub (clerk), made a favorable recommendation to Horton Baptist to proceed with the ordination. 

The church voted unanimously the next day (Sunday) to proceed with the ordination, followed by the service, in which Pastor Garry Moore, father of Stephen and pastor of Burton Avenue Baptist Church, Waterloo, Iowa, presented a challenge to the church and candidate.

Pastor Stephen Moore is a graduate of Faith Baptist Bible College & Theological Seminary, Ankeny, Iowa. He currently serves full time at Horton Baptist, along with his wife, Ellen, and their two sons, Samuel and Benjamin.
