We're back from the Pastor's Retreat! It was really cool and I hope to post a pic when I get them developed. I think I still have 9 pictures left on my fancy disposable camera. Maybe I'll just take a bunch of pictures of the Target where I get my film developed.
It was wonderful to connect with old and new friends in the CEA. And it was a refreshing time for our pastoral staff just to be together. We really feel like family.
Today we went to Gary's father's funeral. It was a beautiful service and I'm going to miss him and his sense of humor. When we'd visit Colonial Tabernacle as I was growing up, I'd always see him sitting with my grandfather in the usher's chairs at the back. Sometimes they would sneak over to my grandfather's house after taking the offering to have a piece of carrot cake. We will miss you, Dad Garry.
About Me
- Pastor Paul
- At the start of 2009, I accepted a position at Canyon Hills Church in Bakersfield. I'm directing the choir, helping to lead worship, putting the Christmas musical together, and also overseeing the Small Group ministry. Before moving to Bakersfield I worked with my family for a year and a half in Seal Beach. Before this, I worked for 17 years as the Music Pastor for Life Center Assembly in Lakewood. Before that I was a Mobile DJ and encouraged people to get down and get funky with their bad selves...or come over for the cake cutting ceremony.
