Reverend Kershaw to preach Sunday, February 25th
Joel is involved in a process of evaluation and direction from the Annual Conference Board of Ordained Ministry. It will lead to his ordination as an elder, in full connection, in 2008.
Part of this process requires a member of the Board to meet with him in his ministry setting and, if possible, for him to preach a sermon. Dr. John Tomlinson will be attending the 10:45 worship service Sunday and then will meet with Joel and several people who work with him.
We are fortunate to have such talented preachers on our staff. The opportunity to hear David Dalke, Carol Quinn, Ray Miller, and Joel is a wonderful gift to our church. I have tried to give each of them an opportunity to preach with frequency without losing the continuity that comes from the same preacher in the pulpit week after week.
The preaching schedule is as follows:
February 18 Carol Quinn preached
February 25 Joel Kershaw preaches
March 4 I’m preaching
March 11 David Dalke preaches
March 18 I’m preaching
March 25 Ray Miller’s preaching
April 1 I’m preaching
Maundy Thursday Choir’s Cantata
Good Friday Joel Kershaw preaching
April 8 I’m preaching
April 15 Carol Quinn preaching
April 22 Confirmation Sunday Joel Kershaw preaching
If you have thoughts to send Joel for his sermon or to let him know you’re thinking about him this week write Joel at jkershaw@fcfumc.net
If you’d like to send me an email write me at charlesschuster@fcfumc.net
I look forward to hearing from you.
