Okay, so I didn't get this written up until now, but it still is exciting news!! Starting June 1st (YESTERDAY!) I am full time at the church!! I will continue to be full time until August 9th when I will revert back to part-time status. This will allow me to focus fully on the youth this summer, and pour my heart into the ministry. I'm praying that the Lord leads in the direction needed to make this summer a productive summer. I would love to have some grants that I could write that would help the church open the youth center full time AND perhaps pay me so that I can continue full time next year. :) Would you join with me in prayer for that? Thanks!
Keith, Ray and Tina are all doing fine. I'll have some new pics up soon, I promise. This is the last week of school, so I look forward to finishing up the finals week and starting up the church full time. :)
Blessings!
Mark

Okay, I read this post yesterday, but needed some time to pray- pray that that HE can help me not be selfish with this situation. See, selfishly, I want you at school one more year. But I also know how much you want this and how wonderful it will be for you and your family.
You know the saying, if you love something, you must let it go. I love the job you do at school. I love how well you work with the kids. I love the support you give me on a daily basis.
But I know you will do these same things as a youth pastor, with a different group of kids. And you will be doing it to help them strengthen their faith. They are one lucky group of kids! So, yes, I will be praying that you will go full time at the church in the fall. It was a blessing to have met you and I know our paths will continue to cross, one way or the other!
