This week I:

• welcomed two new members into the congregation,
• commemorated 20 saints,
• joined 45 others in a really great Harvest Party,
• learned about my top 5 leadership themes (Connectedness, Strategic, Empathy, Intellection, Responsibility),
• learned a lot about industrial motors on my first Take Your Pastor to Work visit,
• contemplated the earthiness of the Holy Spirit,
• studied Jesus’ series of dinners with the Pharisees in Luke’s gospel,
• considered church budgets as documents of vision and purpose.

It’s been a good week.
