For years, I resisted God's call to parish ministry. I really wanted to do great things beyond the local church. God had other plans. Not only did He call me into parish ministry, He called me to open my home to be the place where we gather. I love the intimacy of our morning service around our dining room table. I love the simple beauty of our healing service at a local assisted living home. I love the organ and hymns at our afternoon service. Sundays are a beautifully fulfilling and exhausting day for me, but I wouldn't have it any other way!
