YAO RESIGNS AS ANALYST/DIRECTOR
OF AMERICAN BAPTIST INFORMATION SYSTEMS
Pin Yao, analyst/director of American Baptist
Information Systems, has announced her resignation,
effective Aug. 31.
Following a General Board vote to lodge the former
Congregational Profile System in the Office of the General
Secretary, Yao was named director of the new American
Baptist Information Systems in 1997. In that role she has
provided leadership for American Baptist Churches USA in the
transition from a stand-alone database in the Mission Center
here to a region-based system. She has led the 14-month
rewrite and implementation of a new integrated Web-based
application for both denominational statistics and
accounting for American Baptist Mission Support.
Yao, a native of China, joined the American Baptist
Mission Support staff in 1994 as director of budget and
analysis.
Commenting on Yao's contributions, American Baptist
Churches USA Associate General Secretary and Treasurer Dr.
Cheryl H. Wade said, " During an extremely difficult period
of time she has led a transition that has resulted in vastly
improved database and accounting capabilities for both regions
and the Mission Center in Valley Forge. We are now able to
share real-time, online denominational statistics and accounting.
Pin has been a superb leader and an exemplar of servant ministry."
