Notes about people

by Jerry L. Van Marter

The Rev. Karl B. Travis, pastor of Grosse Ile (MI)Presbyterian Church, is
the featured speaker for four upcoming installments of  "The Protestant
Hour," a nationally broadcast radio program also accessible via streaming
audio on the Internet.

	Travis can be heard on the Jan. 27, Feb. 17, March 10 and March 31 (Easter
Day) broadcasts of "The Protestant Hour" on participating radio stations and
at www.protestanthour.com.  Each program includes a five-minute interview
with him.

	"The Protestant Hour" has been broadcast every week for more than 57 years,
winning numerous awards in the process, including the George Foster Peabody
Award for broadcast excellence. It is produced cooperatively by the
Presbyterian Church (USA), the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, the
Episcopal Media Center and the United Methodist Church.

	By a vote of 107-80 on Nov. 13, the Presbytery of San Francisco restored
the Rev. Donald L. McCullough to active ministry in the Presbyterian Church
(USA).

	McCullough was temporarily suspended from ordained ministry after he was
convicted May 5, 2000, by the Permanent Judicial Commission of San Francisco
Presbytery of two counts of sexual abuse, stemming from two simultaneous
extra-marital affairs while he was pastor at Solana Beach Presbyterian
Church near San Diego and after he was elected president of San Francisco
Theological Seminary in May of 1994.

	McCullough resigned as president of the seminary shortly before his
conviction.
