big change at church

I realize that my blog may have become too much just politcal ramblings and not enough about other things in my life. for example I have not yet wrote about a big change at church I found out about on Mon. Our senior pastor Cal is leaving effective the end of Aug. after 16 years at the church. He was the organizing pastor and has done lots of wonderful things for Plymouth Presbyterian. He is uncertain as to what he wants to do next, but has been restless for a change and therefore is taking this leap of faith. I wonder how many of us would have the courage to leave a wondeful community/ministry for the unknown. I appauld Cal, I so happy he is doing what is right for him and wish he all the best as he discerns God's call for him. I know the next few years we will face many challenges as we go through this transistion but I think it is a very healthy thing for this church.
