I am facing some discouraging weeks. I started in my parish almost a yr ago, and we have seen almost double growth. However, I lost seven folks in the past weeks, and possibly more to leave soon. I am told that it has nothing to do with me, but it is hard to not take it personally. Any advice from the other ministers out here? I have had some illness, etc to deal with, and also from the recent lossess in my family, depression. I am also mentally and emotionally exhausted. LOL...now I think I am experiencing a bit of what it is said of Jesus "giving his life for the church." I know this is out of context, but some of my life has been laid down recently. I hope this season of resurrection does just that for me... resurrects. In Christ, TF |
