The GLC, which is also operating under the name Coalition for Evangelisation, has decided upon Winterhoff, a full-time pastor of the Evangelical Church of Westphalia in Halle.
In addition to her ministry as a pastor in Halle, Westphalia, Winterhoff, 52, is also Deputy Chair of Evangeliumsrundfunk in Wetzlar (ERF – Good News Evangelical Broadcasting).
