Central Baptist Church, 3301 Lakin Ave. in Great Bend, will hold a public Pastor Installation Service for its new pastor, Daniel Dugas, at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 13. The formal installation service is not only a time of commitment between pastor and congregation, but also a time to introduce Pastor Dugas to the community.

Dr. Nate Marsh, associate executive minister of American Baptist Churches of the Central Region, will lead the service. A reception will be held after the service.

The public is invited and welcome to attend. Parking and church entrance are on the west side of the church.
