Pastor's Weekly Blog

Hi My Brothers and Sisters in Jesus!

It was a great pleasure to preach this past weekend. It was great to see all of you there. I also attended the Trustees' meeting last Thursday and it was a great pleasure to be there and be a part of leadership again. We are so blessed to have such a great group of leaders who get along well and genuinely have the mission of Jesus Christ as their focus.

I laid-out a plan to return to full-time ministry. This plan is available on Mary's desk. It is in calendar form and extends through December 31, 2009. Please pick one up, if you didn't last weekend, and place it where you can see it easily.

I feel as though I have more energy. I am three months ahead of the schedule the doctors and therapists thought I would be able to keep. I still have to be careful not to do too much or move too fast. The schedule I laid out will help me to keep a constant progression without doing too much or not doing enough. You also will be able to keep track of my progress and know what is going on with me. I hope it is helpful.

As the weather changes it is difficult for me, so prayers for pain relief are very welcome. I am able to ignore the constant pain for the most part, but when I get overly tired or the weather changes then it becomes more difficult. Thank you so much for all of your prayers, loving concern, and words of encouragement. Until next week.

In the Arms of our Savior, Jesus,
Pastor Randy
