Pastoral Year in Review – 2014

Now that 2014 has ended and I’ve had a few days of rest following the Christmas marathon of sermons, I’ve gone back and compiled all of my stats for the year with regards to my ministry.

This marks nearly 9 1/2 years at Trinity. It’s hard to believe that it has been that long, until you ask me tomorrow and my response is, only 9 1/2 years! Seriously, I have greatly enjoyed the opportunity to shepherd God’s people at Trinity and the experiences here (good, bad, and ugly) have helped shape who I am as a pastor.

Now for the part that you’ve been anxiously waiting for:

Sermons: 62 (not counting midweek Advent and Lent sermons)
Weddings: 3
Funerals 5
Includes 2 men whom God called home too soon
Baptisms: 7
Junior Confirmation: 5
Adult Confirmation/Affirmation of Faith: 3
