    It has been a momentous week

    Two great things happened this week:

    First, I had my 2-year review with the Church Board and it went very well. It's a learning process for all of us, but we are committed to learning together.

    Second, we found a house to purchase and they accepted our offer. It is in a much quieter neighborhood than the parsonage, and it has a yard for my kids and dog.

    Praise God for his provision.

    Sounds a little like mine. Ordination Monday, closing on our house Friday (and a baby due the next week).
    ...just my $.02.

    Ordination was last week, and we are past the baby phase. Congrats on all of that though. I'm really happy for you and Katelyn.
    Thanks Kevin Rector, Katelynn Scott, Ryan Scott - "thanks" for this post

    Congratulations on a successful two year review. That is a big deal! Very happy for you and praying for God's wisdom and blessing on your ministry there. A good pastor can't do anything without good members on his side.
    Thanks Susan Unger - "thanks" for this post

    Praise the Lord, Roy, Ryan and Katelyn for your successes and the approaching birth of the baby. God bless all of you.

    It would have been a bit awkward if you'd been ordained and then not received a favorable review.

    I'm glad things are going well!

    BTW, it looks like your new house will be quiet... except when the tractors roll past to work that field behind it.

    I grew up in farm country near Shipshewana. I can handle tractors and combines.
