Pastor Rich’s sabbatical begins

May 27, 2008   //   by rich   //   Events  //  Comments Off on Pastor Rich’s sabbatical begins

May 27 – August 12, 2008

Way back in 2006, Living Hope’s church board started planning to give Pastor Rich and his wife Stacey a sabbatical break in the summer of 2008. Through a generous grant provided by the Lilly Endowment for Clergy Renewal, the financial costs of this sabbatical are covered, including the cost of bringing in guest speakers during Pastor Rich’s absence.

Part of the rationale for the break is to give Pastor Rich time to recharge and get energized for the next stage of Living Hope’s growth and development. We’re on the verge of a new chapter in the church’s life, and we want to be sure we have a pastor (and pastor’s wife) who are ready to lead us forward. Please join us in praying for Pastor Rich and for Stacey, that this will be a renewing, inspirational time both for them and for us.
