In a short but intensive process the Regional Director consulted with various persons and groups and met with the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees. Considering various options, the Executive Committee proposed to change the current Leadership Team from three to two persons, and the name of Rev. Arnold was nominated for the position of rector. After approval from the leader of the World Mission Department, Dr. Louie Bustle and the responsible General Superintendent Dr. James Diehl, a mail ballot was sent to the Board of Trustees.

Klaus Arnold has served on the faculty of EuNC as lecturer, and has been the Administrative Manager for the last 8 years. He has been a pastor in the Southwest Germany district and served congregations in Seligenstadt, Büsingen and Gottmadingen. He is a graduate of EuNC and Nazarene Theological Seminary. He and his wife Martina have two children, Dorothee and Kathrin.

With the new leadership coming from within the college, the vote signifies a strong support for what has been accomplished in recent years and a desire for this development to be continued. As a college, we can be proud of this sign of confidence. It also means that the leadership transition will be smooth and without much major change.

We ask you to continue to lift up the school in your prayers as it continues to move forward into the future.
