We are blessed to have Martin as our full-time pastor with his training and experience. We are also fortunate that he has been gracious in sharing the pulpit and training others to step in when needed. Over the next month and a half or so he needs to take some time to spend with his dad and to have a procedure done to preserve and improve his eyesight. The Elder Board has encouraged him to take this personal time and several of the Elders will step in to fill the pulpit.
I will fill in this week during the men’s retreat and Martin will be back next week. After that, Brian, Larry, Stan, and Kevin Kompelien from the Evangelical Free Church’s ReachGlobal will bring the messages. Several of those sermons will be a detour from Philippians, but we’ll stay the course and finish just a little later than planned.
You can minister to Martin by praying for him and for those who will attempt to fill his big shoes. You can also help hold him accountable to trusting the team he has labored many years to build and for him to spend as little time as possible ministering to us and to focus on his dad and his own health.
