First woman general secretary for United Reformed Church
The United Reformed Church has appointed the Rev Roberta Rominger as its general secretary. She is the first woman to hold the post in the Church, or in any of its predecessor denominations.
Ms Rominger trained for ministry in the USA, and was ordained in California, in the United Church of Christ. She came to Britain in 1985 and has been a minister in the United Reformed Church ever since, serving as Moderator of the Thames North Synod for the past ten years.
She will take up the post in July, replacing the Rev Dr David Cornick, who is to become general secretary of Churches Together in England, an appointment that reflects the United Reformed Church commitment to ecumenism....
