Thank
you
It
has been busy around the office over the past few days. We are
gearing up for September which will see a silent movie in the nave,
the parish picnic, a presentation on the opioid crisis, St. John's
Day, the return of our education offerings for all ages, and I can't
remember what else.
Football
season officially begins next Friday for me with a game at Clear
Spring.
Commissions
are working on their budgets, and I'm supposed to be going over our
employee handbook.
And
on and on it goes, the business of the church never ending, and the
busy-ness of the church sometimes overwhelming.
Yesterday,
amid the business and busy-ness, amid the meetings and writings, amid
the various worries of one kind or another, I turned another year
older.
And
amid all those things I received many birthday greetings, most of
which came from the people of this parish. Let me state for the
record: one of the best birthday gifts I've received is the gift of
you, the people of this parish. Thank you for allowing me to be part
of your lives. Thank you for making me and my family feel at home.
Thank you for making this job as wonderful and spiritually fulfilling
as almost anything I've ever experienced.
Thank
you for being with me on this incredible journey.
Blessings
