Ordination Invitation

After the shortest congregational meeting in living memory, Mosgiel Presbyterian Church has agreed to appoint Chris and I to a stated supply position there until the end of December. This means that we can be ordained which will be happening Thursday 29 March, 7:30 at Mosgel Prebyterian Church, Church Street Mosgeil.
Needless to say we are delighted and looking foward to celebrating with family and friends.
We are enjoying the job for the most part. Chris had a "sleep over" at the church on Saturday night and the youth and young adults took the service there on Sunday. One of our young people has returned from a short term mission to Nigeria and he was invited to speak - although his slide show was so long we didn't have time to hear his sermon. So we will hear that next week.
I had teacher interviews with Katarina last week. She has settled into Columba College so well and continues to work really hard. Her teachers are all very pleased with her - not that we would expect anything less!!
This week it will be Janine's turn and I expect a similar sort of report from her teacher.
Hannah is really enjoying her swimming lessons and Zach arrived home and announced he would like to play hockey this year. His enthusiasm for sport never ceases to amaze me!
I spent Monday travelling to Wellington, interviewing applicants for a youth ministry support position. The research project is in its final stages and I am hoping to make a start on the Master's stuff soon.
