Pastoral Year in Review

It’s that time of year again. Time to review my year in the ministry. So for all those who are dying to know all of the vital stats, here they are.

Sermons: 65
Weddings: 2
Funerals 6
Baptisms: 12
Junior Confirmation: 6
Adult Confirmation/Affirmation of Faith: 5

It was a busy year as you can tell. December was quite busy, as it always is. This year, Christmas Eve & Day came early in the week, so there were services Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday (6 services in 3 days, 4 different sermons). I vow to write my Christmas sermons in July; that way, I won’t be fighting an uphill battle of sermon writing in December.

So now that 2012 is in the books and 2013 has started, I figured that it would be a good time to clean my desk and go through a bunch of old files and purge some stuff. Heck, I might even look at cleaning the stacks of paper and whatnot on the floor. It’s ambitious, I know.
