My Ministry

  Over the past 3.5 years I've been trying to find the words to describe what it means for me to be a pastor in the church.  At times, I've found different language that suits this task.  My most current language...

As a pastor, I believe I am called--

To awaken minds
  Ravaged by the storms
  Broken by the world
  Weary of the work

To impassion hearts
  For Christ alone, and all that He has created

To empower lives
  To be lived within God's mission field

To make disciples
  Formed by God's Holy Spirit
  Alert to the cries of the needy
  Alive to the community of faith
  In love with God, self and neighbor.
