I'm sure you have all heard the news by now, I have been appointed to be senior pastor at Pleasant View UMC this summer. When I was approved to be a pastor in the United Methodist church, this is what I signed up for. My last day is June 27, which means I will only be at Bethlehem for 9 more weeks. I want to first let you all know how grateful I am for the opportunity to serve here. This has been one of the most wonderful church communities I have ever been a part of and we will never forget you. This will always be the church that helped me to become an ordained minister. Thank you for loving me and my family so well.
With that said, I am still here for 9 more weeks. Please feel free to reach out and talk or text, come by my office, or stop me in the hallway. I am happy to talk about whatever needs to be talked about. Your feelings will always matter to me and it is all good to talk about painful things as well as joyful things. This is the way. We are all called to serve the Kingdom of God. I hope for all of you that whether it is in a church or out in the streets, you hear God's calling and go and serve in the name of Jesus.
