We are delighted to announce that Sonja Haller will be ordained into Christian ministry on Sunday, November 9, 2025, at 3:00 p.m. at Desert Palm United Church of Christ, 1230 E Guadalupe Rd, Tempe, AZ.

This sacred service marks a milestone in Sonja’s journey of faith and service within the United Church of Christ. Clergy are invited to gather by 2:45 p.m., vested and wearing a red stole, as we affirm her call to ministry together.

All are invited to attend in person or join the livestream at desertpalmucc.org. Let us come together in prayer, joy, and gratitude as we celebrate God’s continuing work through Sonja’s life and ministry.
