... okay, I'm back from our Wednesday to Monday Okanagan trip, and back at it here in the back office of SBF. Karen and I were at Fairhaven Ministry's retreat centre just north of Vernon, halfway up Silver Star mountain. Rumour has it Glen and Irela Rhodes have been known to volunteer their time and skills up there. They probably helped build or finish decorating one of the buildings ( we stayed in the Vineyard Cottage ). A totally great setting for pastoral leaders and teams to get away, reflect, recharge, re-group sometimes I am sure.
Anyways, working on some big ticket items, and opening up some of those discussions at tonight's elders meeting. Search Committee
reports, some teaching ministry planning for Advent and January to March 2009, some logistics, some details, some pastoral care concerns ... Dougans, Johnsons, Adams, Dickinsons ... some devotional time and prayer.
Kevin W. and I have been busy e-mailing, or BlackBerrying for him, back and forth since I got back last night, as he has been in Cranbrook on business today. He may or may not agree with me posting this, but a novelty of his busy day today will be flying home in time for the elder's meeting in a Lear Jet ... his first time in one of those! he even sent me a quick pic he snapped. OK, I need to run.
Until next time ...
