Adventist Communication Network (ACN) Welcomes New 
General Manager

Silver Spring, MA/USA. [APD/ACN] On January 1, 1999, 
Glenn Aufderhar became the new General Manager of 
the Adventist Communication Network (ACN). He 
replaces Kermit Netteburg, who will continue his 
role as North American Division Assistant to the 
President for Communication. After wrapping up NET '98, 
where he served as the executive producer, Aufderhar 
is looking forward to this new challenge and 
continuing the work of ACN.

With years of experience in ministry, Aufderhar is 
working to further the ministry of ACN along with the 
help of its network staff.  "ACN truly has great 
potential.  It has proven to be a valuable tool in 
building bridges between the church and its family.  
This can especially be seen from the results of all 
the evangelism crusades," he says.

With a Bachelor of Arts degree in Theology and 
Communication from Walla Walla College and a Masters 
in Systematic Theology from Andrews University, 
Aufderhar entered the Adventist ministry in 1962 as a 
pastor and conference evangelist for the Washington, 
Idaho, and the North Pacific Union.  Since then, with 
his ordination 1966, Aufderhar have held positions 
that has made his transition to the team of ACN an 
easy one.

Over the years, Aufderhar has served the church in 
numerous ministry roles, including president of the 
Washington and Michigan Conferences of Adventist 
church, and the Adventist Media Center.  He recently 
held the position of Assistant to the President of the 
Seventh-day Adventist North American Division for 
Special Projects, where he coordinated NET '98.
