This past Sunday, Calvary Church held its annual Congregational Business meeting. I was asked to outline my thoughts about my sabbatical to the gathered members. I briefly tried to explain that no, I was not tired, or burned out, but I wanted to obey the biblical concept of rest. I would have liked to have explained exactly what I was going to do, but since there are no confirmations as yet to actual place and endeavours, I could only be vague about that. I was amazed at the enthusiasm the members displayed. The leader of the meeting even said she thought my proposal was 'awesome'. I feel truly humbled by their response. I think my congregation is wonderful. I am so spoiled!
