In fall 2025, two Oregon Conference pastors celebrated a milestone moment: ordination. Pastoral ordination and commissioning represent years of service, leadership development and missional intentionality in local ministry. At Woodburn Spanish Adventist Church, Felix Toribio, pastor, stood before the congregation with his family, surrounded by loving mentors, ministry partners and conference leadership. There’s nothing better!”At Pleasant Valley Adventist Church in Happy Valley, Oregon, Billy Hungate, pastor, also prepared for celebration. “It was an honor for all of us to gather at Pleasant Valley Church and celebrate God’s hand in the life of Hungate,” shared McVay.
