THE consecration of the fifth Bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Malaysia (ELCM), Rev Steven Lawrence, this Saturday will be extra special as the occasion will be the first of its kind held during the Covid-19 period.
The date for the consecration and installation at 10am at the Zion Lutheran Cathedral in Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur, was set last year, well before the movement control order (MCO) was implemented on March 18 to prevent the spread of the virus.
