Really Open Congregation

Brethren Pastor is Person of the Year

When the Rev. Mike Burr was told he was being considered named “Person of the Year” by the Western Colorado Atheists and Freethinkers, the group asked if it would be “detrimental” to his church, said Burr, with a chuckle.

He replied, “no,” that he wasn't afraid of any backlash.

“Our congregation is very open,” said Burr, pastor of Koinonia Church in Grand Junction. Burr has been a pastor for 35 years, most of that time in the Northwest. He came to Grand Junction in 2004 to shepherd Koinonia at 730 25 Road, a congregation aligned with American Baptist Churches of USA and Church of the Brethren.

Study

Group Preparing For Bible Aptitude Test

A local Bible study group led by 18-year-old Elna Parker has begun meeting more frequently and taking regular practice exams in preparation for the upcoming high-pressure Bible Aptitude Test. "The fact is, if you want to get into a good church these days, you have to do really well on your BATs," Parker told reporters Wednesday as she flipped through a heavily highlighted King James Bible. "My cousin didn't take them seriously, totally blew his Second Maccabees, and wound up in a Unitarian congregation." Parker went on to say that the math section was a breeze, since it was all threes, sevens, and 12's, but memorizing the 3,087 character names is where most people trip up.
