From the Director
Lay ministry is its own unique call. Since I began my tenure here in 2003, I have understood my position as a calling, not a job. It has been an amazing blessing to me personally as I met so many wonderful persons of faith and strived to serve them.
That much quoted verse from Ecclesiastes 3 "For everything there is a season..." applies to this call as well. In September of 2010 the call to retire was no longer something that I could ignore. The journey from that decision has been filled with much planning and preparing for new leadership at the Center and a new life for me. The Holy Spirit has guided us to an exciting appointment of Sr. Barbara Jean Brown as director. Sr. BJ is currently committed to serve as chaplain of Camp Wright this summer. For that reason, she will not begin her tenure until August 22. We will train together for a month and I will finally begin my new call Sept 15.
I look forward to introducing her to all of you in the upcoming months.
Blesssings & peace, Paula
