After parallel Church Conferences presided over by our District Superintendent, we’ve got a new church on our hands.
It’s an end. It is a beginning.
It’s holding out an open hand in the name of hope, an opportunity for new life.
It’s trust.
For all the lay folk, staff and my fellow clergy who have worked so diligently, I’m grateful. For all who have prayed that God’s will be done in this process, thank you.
Now, rest. The work begins anew tomorrow.
Always beginning again. I guess it confirms I am a Benedictine at heart.
Amen and amen.
