My Monthly Ramblings

Well it has been almost a month since I last posted so maybe this will turn out to be a monthly blog. Who knows. Blogging has never really been one of my passions and time constraints keep me from doing it on a daily basis, but it is good to sit down and let the thoughts sort of free flow for a little while to see where I am even with myself. Of course the holidays are such a busy time but we have also been very busy in daily activities. My wife and I are the Directors of the Deacon ministry at our church and we have a number of deacons who are now at the end of their term and desire to transition off. Therefore we now are interviewing and talking to a number of candidates to fill those positions as well as others to prepare for the growth that has been occurring in our church. I prefer to stay ahead of that game rather than fall behind and I am sure our current deacons do as well.
We have also continued to pray and plan for the launch of our own church in the spring of 2010. That is very time consuming. We are praying about and for prayer team members, board members, ministry name, 501c3 status, and many other facets to the launching of a new church. It is an interesting process and one that I would not have been prepared for just a few years ago. I do believe that the Lord has stretched us to the point where we can now believe Him to help us establish this church and to cause it to be a healthy, growing entity. So life is very busy right now and we wouldn't have it any other way. Speaking of busy, the Lunch Bunch is calling and I have to run out to Little Azio's for lunch with the gang. See ya later.
