As a member of the St. Paul's you mention, our decisions were not made lightly or quickly. It took months of frank financial discussions with the entire congregation. Questions were asked, answers were given or referer for further research, and options presented. We continually reassess. We have our interim to call for any issues and to oversee our council agenda, and more importantly provide the things only an ordinated pastor can. So far, our congregation continues to tell us they are being spiritually fed and that their needs are being met. We feel the Holy Spirit's guidance and presence as we continue to walk forward in faith. We appreciate your guidance and leadership in these endeavors.
