A year ago today I met with the search
committee tasked with finding your next interim pastor. I didn’t
know any of them and they didn’t know me. I had never been to
Hillsboro before. And now, a year later, here I sit in my office,
writing to you in my capacity as your Transitional Pastor. I am
regularly reminded that life is an amazing journey full of surprises.
And along the way we always have choices. We can hunker down and try
to protect ourselves from the changes which threaten to disrupt our
illusion of control. Or we can do our best to stay open to the flow
of God’s Spirit which carries us along on the amazing adventure of
our living. There will be surprises along the way. We won’t always
end up where we thought we would end up. And isn’t that a good
thing. I am grateful that our journeys have come together for a time.
Thank you for walking with me.
- Pastor Roger
(keeping my feet firmly planted in
the flow)
