LUFKIN, Texas — The Lufkin Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints has a new pastoral leader, and his goal is to follow his calling to serve others and share the gospel.

Ted Adams, 38, is a sales representative for Morris and Dickson, distributing drugs to pharmacies. But in mid-October he became the next bishop — a non-paid local clergy chosen from the congregation.
