Japanese Presbyterian Church of Seattle announces that we have called Byron Walker as Associate Pastor for Children, Youth, and Families.

At a special meeting on Sunday, September 7, 2025, the congregation received the final report of the Associate Pastor Nominating Committee (APNC), voted to approve the terms of call for Byron, and voted to dissolve the APNC with gratitude. Thanks be to God!

Please pray that God will bring us and Byron together as he begins his ministry on September 16, 2025.

“I ask that Christ will live in your hearts through faith. As a result of having strong roots in love, I ask that you’ll have the power to grasp love’s width and length, height and depth, together with all believers. I ask that you’ll know the love of Christ that is beyond knowledge so that you will be filled entirely with the fullness of God.” (Ephesians 3:17–19 CEB)

Watch Byron’s September 7, 2025 sermon on Ephesians 3.
