A Special Morning!



Here is a photo of the prayer of dedication at my installation service that was held last Sunday here at the Gaylord E-Free Church in Gaylord, Michigan. It was taken by our Director of Worship with his camera phone. Though you can't see them all in the picture, all of the Elders and Ministry Staff laid their hands on us, including two representatives from the Great Lakes District of the Evangelical Free Churches of America along with my mentor, Pastor Steve Peters (holding the mic). At the same time the entire church family stretched out their hands toward us in a sign of unity. It was an amazing service - and probably the only installation service in the history of Christendom that included the word "ovulation" being used from the pulpit!! If that doesn't make you want to go on-line and listen to the service recording, nothing will! You can do so through our church website (link below). A special thank you to all who participated and to this amazing church family who have welcomed Laura and myself with open arms.

  10. iTunes worked great! I was blown away as I listened to the service last Sunday. What godly leadership and what a blessing to hear how God was at work behind the scenes directing His plans. I'm so encouraged by how the Lord has worked in your life. It gives me hope for mine. Thanks for being my Pastor. May God bless your ministry...I know He will!

  13. Not sure, Kim! I guess just keep trying! Or better yet - you and Todd take a trip up here and I will preach the message to just the two of you!
