The next few weeks will mark some very important milestone in my life. I completed all my seminary classes. By God’s providence, I was blessed with the opportunity to serve as a pastoral assistant on a half-time basis at my home congregation. In the mean time, I have been awaiting a call to serve as a full-time ordained minister of the gospel, and now, the time has come.
I have been offered a Letter of Call to shepherd two small rural congregations. This Sunday, I will be ordained as a pastor and will have an official title of “Rev”. It’s hard to believe after all this time. I will also be busy packing, moving, and getting settled into a new place in the next several weeks. This means I’ll have less time for blogging in the next little while so don’t expect many posts but I will be back at my normal pace after I get settled. Peace and blessings to all my friends and readers of this blog.
Congratulations! Well done.

TC, thanks brother. It’s good to know I have a colleague in ministry who loves the Lord.
Stan, you never know. One year I just might decide to vacation in Orlando. If I do, I’ll let you know.

Stan and Tim, thank guys.
Hey I love Florida. Canadians think of Florida as vacation country. With all that beautiful weather all year round, I don’t know how people can concentrate on ministry?

It saddens me, however, that you will not be coming to Florida. 😉
