Thought this to be interesting. I was thinking RS would follow DKB to Headquarters to serve in some capacity, maybe take over JJ's position.

Rodney Shaw Elected Pastor of New Life Church
Posted in News on Monday, October 26th, 2009
In a special business meeting during the Sunday evening service on October 25, Rodney Shaw was overwhelmingly elected as pastor of New Life Church.
He with serve as co-pastor with Pastor Bernard until June 30, 2011, which will give us time to finish our capital campaign and building program. At that time, he will become the sole senior pastor, and Pastor Bernard will become bishop, defined as advisory pastor, and will serve in that capacity in addition to his primary role as General Superintendent of the United Pentecostal Church International.
Congratulations, Pastor Shaw!

A note ... a little puzzled with the date he officially becomes "sole senior pastor." I see the reason given, but isn't a requirement of being UPCI GS that you not be Pastor of a church? This would mean DKB would continue as Pastor for over a year into his new role as the UPCI GS.
