Is this right?

[LilRitt04]

Ok this past month our praise and worship leader left our church with our pastor. They left for reasons that are very valid and it was definitely God who took them. Our former Pastors and praise and worship leaders left and started a church in Florida. It is basically another version of our church, just a branch in Florida. But our leader left and we were basically left with nothing.

My point to this is...do you think it is right that they left and should people have hard feelings concering it?

A question. How much notice did they give? Did they just up and leave, or was there a period of time from the time they announced that they were leaving, and the actual date they left?

You stated "They left for reasons that are very valid and it was defintely God who took them".

It sounds to me that you know that answer to part of your questions. Should people have hard feelings? No, but they will. Its because they feel that their wishes should come before the call of God. If your Pastor and your Worship Leader were truly called to another area by God, the congregation can ONLY support them and the call God has placed on their heart.

A few years ago, the pastor of the church that I was going to left. When he and his wife left, we were left with nothing. That wasnt all. After they left, the man who owned the church, also a member of the church, decided that there was no hope and he closed down our church. We were all devastated. Just be thankful for who and what your church family has left. Pray and ask God for the strength and ask Him to help you and our church family.
