Sunday, we invite the entire Witherspoon Presbyterian Church of Indianapolis Family to join us as we celebrate Deacon Reverend Willeek Blanchard as he embarks on an exciting new chapter of ministry, scholarship, and service.

Rev. Blanchard has accepted a new position with the Center for Congregations in Evansville, Indiana, where he will continue equipping and strengthening churches across our state. At the same time, he will begin pursuing the Master of Divinity degree at Louisville Presbyterian Seminary, further preparing himself for God’s call upon his life.

While we will certainly miss his presence at Witherspoon, we rejoice that God continues to open new doors and expand his ministry. His journey reminds us that faithful service often leads to new opportunities for learning, leadership, and impact.

Please join us as we surround Rev. Blanchard with our love, prayers, and encouragement. We invite you to bring cards and expressions of well wishes as we send him forth with gratitude and every blessing.

Congratulations, Rev. Blanchard! We thank God for your faithful service and look forward to seeing all that God will accomplish through you in this next season.

“Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.” — Proverbs 16:3
