Sunday, May 17th
Hey guys,
Today, before a room full of high-school students, the integrity of our church elders was put to the test. Our church has entered into the process of leaving the presbytery and joining another denomination, due to differences in beliefs. Tonight was SUPPOSED to be a time for the youth to be able to ask their questions about everything that is going on, and get some answers. Unfortunately, as the night began, the elders realized that they couldn't do this. Because it was an official meeting, there had to be a representative from the Presbytery there, and unfortunately, there wasn't. Instead of just continuing on, as if nothing was wrong, the elders immediately filled us in. The elders showed their integrity, and their respect for the presbytery, despite our different views and opinions. The elders did their best to answer questions as they could, but if there was a question that was approaching the border of what they knew they couldn't talk about, they simply said, "we can't answer that right now." How cool is that?
<3 Always,
Rose
