In 2000 Bishop Walter E. Jordan was consecrated to the Sacred Office of Bishop. Under Bishop Jordan's inspirational leadership, ONFJ grew and developed into a model jurisdiction.
Bishop Jordan reorganized the structure of the Jurisdiction's administration under the mission statement he authored.Bishop Jordan was a musical prodigy and a prolific preacher, starting at an early age. Like others he followed in their footsteps to become State YPWW leader. He, too, was a church builder and a man of unimpeachable integrity. Bishop Jordan was with us as Bishop Emeritus until his passing in 2013.
