Mary Lee was here this past week as a candidate for my position, was introduced in all 3 services and met many people in the East Alcove. Next Sunday (9/25) all members will be able to vote before or after the services to vote yes or no to extend an offer to be the next Children's Ministry Director. You may also vote in the office this week if you won't be here Sunday. If the quorum vote is "yes" to extend an offer, then she will give her notice at work, pack up to move here and our transition process will begin.
Then will be my time to exit from this position, which I have loved for 17 years. So many of you have become good friends of mine over the years. I have laughed and/or cried with many of you and enjoyed your fellowship. I can already feel the void developing for when I retire and step down from this position.
I do plan to stay here at Faith Church, hopefully out of Mary Lee's way, and have committed to finishing out the year with my Thursday morning Bible study ladies. After that, I have no idea what God may be calling me to do. Pray for wisdom for me as I seek God's will for me for my "retirement years."
