Keep Praying…

A number of folks are asking, “How’d the weekend go? What’s the update?” Well, I can’t respond to everyone, so here it is: KEEP PRAYING.

I had a last round of interviews with staff, elders, search committee and the entire congregation. I delivered a sermon. Now the search committee is saddled with a decision to make. They have sent out a mass e-mail to the congregation for feedback. Tonight the committee is meeting to discuss whether or not to recommend me to the congregation to become their pastor, or to widen the search.

If the committee recommends me to the congregation, the congregation will vote on that recommendation on August 17th.  School starts on the 18th.

I’ve made clear that my interest in the position expires at the end of the summer. I cannot, after everything my family and children have been through post-Katrina, ask them to enter new schools in New Orleans, form new friendships, extract them from said schools in two months and adapt academically and socially in Tallahassee.

So pray for the search committee tonight, that they would hear from the Lord - that they would have wisdom from above and that the Lord would lead according to His perfect plan!
