Tonight was the third interview with the call committee, one that I requested following some questions after the second interview. It went rather well and I think all saw some assumptions wiped away, and heard each other fully.
Shortly after I left the meeting, I received a call from the call committee chairperson who relayed to me that the committee voted to send my name to council. So now the next steps: prayer, council meeting (I have been asked to attend), prayer, visit with the congregation on Sept. 9, prayer, preach for the congregation soon there after, prayer, that same day a congregational meeting and vote, prayer, and then pending that vote potentially an ordination date soon in process.
I have learned a lot through this and have to say that I am relieved that this part is 'done.' I have a lot to discern and think through in the next few days, but I trust that God is present in the midst of all this. I will withhold congregation name, etc...until it is public to the congregation itself. Thank you for your continued prayers, I will keep you posted as things progress.
