Exciting indeed. I'm so glad that Dennis has finally landed a well paying job!
You are paying him well, right?
Oh wait! Who is in charge of watching John Reilly now? Has anyone thought of this?

To know and to serve God, of course, is why we're here, a clear truth, that, like the nose on your face, is near at hand and easily discernible but can make you dizzy if you try to focus on it hard. But a little faith will see you through.

Jeremy, would you consider sending your new associate to Boys and Girls Camp: July 8-13? I need counselors. I am the Boys Camp Director.
Jim, I offered Dennis a generous salary, church owned auto with gas card, eight weeks vacation, parsonage with all paid utilities, fully furnished office with secretary, lap top, cell phone and ipad. Dennis declined my offer to work with Jeremy.Originally Posted by Jim Chabot

I think you misunderstood, Jim. I neither hired him nor am I paying him. This ain't no business.You are paying him well, right?
Did you offer grandkids?

I remember that offer. There was an issue with the color of the office walls if I remember right. This Dennis fellow is right picky about where he works.

I suppose he just hired himself on then?

You forgot the health insurance
"No scripture can mean that God is not love, or that his mercy is not over all his works" (John Wesley - Free Grace, 26)
I thought Dennis had national health insurance. If not yet, almost!You forgot the health insurance

Oh well. I was really hoping Dennis would come down here and join our staff doing ministry among his peers - you know, senior adult visitation, hospital calls, that sort of thing.
I guess I'll just have to wait a year or two until Reilly reaches that age - after all, by then I may have the lure of his grandchildren working for me.

As someone who is old enough to "get it" when it comes to grand kids. - You are definitely paying him. There may be no cash changing hands but you are providing something of very great value. No one is going to outbid you for his services.

You and John performed the ceremony. All you can do now is wait. You can't stop it, either.

You know, you people have skirted all around the issue that the GA will have to deal with as soon as they get through trimming the Bd of GSs: Naz nepotism.
My congratulations to both employer and employee.
