Prayers for the family of Coach Thomas, and for the students and staff of the School.

Update on little Katie...

She is home and doing well and miraculously no brain damage. While the family has no Church affiliation, I have been bringing their other children to Sunday School. I arranged for Pastor to visit them at the Hospital, and Katie and her two half brothers will be baptized in our Church in September!

Thank you all for your prayers!

Dear friends,

My Congregation, St. Matthew Lutheran Church, Stratford (LCC) is facing that fork in the road that we all fear. Because of declining attendance we are now considering disbanding.

Following Service today, we are having a special voters meeting to consider this issue, and based on the recommendations of our planing committee, Council, and Elders, we will be bringing forward a motion to disband. As chairman of elders, the bringing of the motion has been put into my hands.

There is much hurt, anger, and sadness among our membership.

I must admit that at this point in time the Holy Spirit has not revealed to me what direction we should go. I love my Church and my Congregation and the whole Church. I just do not know.

Please pray for us, so that we can discern our Lord's Will in this matter.

A number of non-attending members will be present as they are still eligible voters. Many of whom in the past have been very hateful and disruptive at our meetings in the distant past.

Please pray also that our meeting can proceed in a spirit of Christian love, charity, and peace.

Thanks and may God's will be done.

My prayers were answered, the meeting was peaceful, and by a huge majority decided to disband.

This is God's will, and it will allow us to be better stewards of the gifts and assets that the Lord has given us.

Wow.

If there was peace about this I pray for all the members and may the Lord lead them.

I'll ask for prayers for my home concregation on extending a call for a new pastor.

 

[MarkRohfrietsch]

May the Holy Spirit guide the deliberations of your Congregation, providing you with the blessing of the Pastor that you need!

 

[Phoebe]

I'll bet the next pastor that gets the job could use some prayers, too.
We expect great things of our pastors.

I have been approached with, and have accepted an offer to Admin in Theology.

This is all new to me, so please pray that I catch on fast, and that I and the rest of staff may continue to be a blessing to CF.

Thanks and God bless all.

I'll be going in for outpatient surgery tomorrow morning, July 6th. Pray that all goes well. It's an elective surgery...a woman thing...and I'm not scared about it because I know God's will be done.

I've been in severe pain, with my fibromyalgia, since last night. Sorry to be a bother, but this is awful.
