Here we go!!!!
We are candidating in Columbia, Illinois THIS WEEKEND!!
Friday: "meet & greet" with the youth groups over pizza,
Saturday: same deal with the rest of the congregation over snacky stuff,
Sunday: I preach, they vote and the Search Committee takes us out to dinner - hopefully to celebrate.
We plan to move on Nov. 26th!!!!
I know I said before that I couldn't say where it was, but since the announcement has been made to the congregation, it is OK now.
WE ARE VERY EXCITED !!!!
Preaching from the Revised Common Lectionary is often a minor adventure... it is spooky how often the suggested text is just right for the situation. We (close colleagues and I) like to blame it on the Holy Spirit (though with the dumb choices the committee made about things to leave out, one has to seriously question how much they actually LISTENED to the Spirit!!). Sunday's Gospel lesson: Luke 21:5-19 includes the line, "This will give you an opportunity to testify." Which is an excellent text for a trial sermon.
Love to all,
Kristofer
