New President Coming for Covenant Seminary

This evening I saw the following announcement from the Board of Trustees of Covenant Theological Seminary:

At our spring stated meeting of April 27-28, 2012, the Board of Trustees of Covenant Theological Seminary voted to approve the transition of Dr. Bryan Chapell from President to Chancellor, effective June 1, 2012. The Board appointed Dr. Mark Dalbey, currently Vice President of Academics, as interim President. In addition, the Board announced the formation of a search committee to assist the Board in selecting the next President. More information will be forthcoming.

To my knowledge, Covenant has not had a Chancellor in the past, so I'm not sure what exactly this means in regards to Dr. Chapell's responsibilities. That being said, I am sure that Dr. Dalbey will provide wonderful leadership in the interim, while Covenant searches for it's next President. Please join me in praying for the seminary during this period.
