The last few weeks have been very busy ones, and not just because of the Christmas season. As much as I love writing for this blog, my pastoral ministry to our church family has to take precedence. Whenever there are pressing needs that require my time, this tends to limit the time I have available for writing. Such is the nature of ministry when one is the sole paid staff-person of a church. (You can be sure I thank God every day for our wonderful volunteer leaders!)

Along with the usual time demands this past month or so has been the need to coordinate some potentially exciting changes for our church. I’ll probably be writing about these developments in the coming weeks. And I hope to get back into the swing of things with this blog next week. To those of you who’ve inquired, thanks for your interest and patience!
