Giorgio Bouchard: with sorrow I announce
the passing away in Torre Pellice
of pastor Giorgio Bouchard on 27 July,
four days before his 91st birthday. A
man of great culture and fine intellect,
he was an entertaining speaker, a lively
writer and was extremely active in all
the directions his vocation and mission
took him: Moderator of the Board of the
Waldensian Church, President of the
Federation of the Protestant Churches
in Italy (FCEI), and much more. He left
a deep mark in every field he ventured
into. Above all, though, he was an
excellent minister and preacher and a
man of unwavering faith. Believers and
Giorgio Bouchard 1929–2020.

future is not quite clear yet. More news in the Winter issue.
