The head of the call committee of the church in Alberta called to say that Jon wasn’t a match. He did say he’d recommend Jon highly to the assistant to the bishop there for the other churches in the area who are looking for pastors but it’s still a blow to Jon. I’m sad because they were good people and an amazing church. They took their time deliberating which makes me think that this wasn’t a decision made lightly. In the end, it’s still the second time Jon has made it to an in-person interview this year only to be shot down. Pray for him.
There is a church in California which is looking at Jon. It would mean being closer to family and friends and if nothing else, it’s an option. Pray that things go well when we fly out there next month.
If I may ask, will you be in my part of CA? I’d love to finally meet ya face to face.
I’m sorry for your news. If it helps, it took me a year of interviewing to get from my first to my second call, and when it was finally right, it was really right. Peace to you both.
Will definitely keep you in prayer. The population of Lepicats is down in Cali, we need at least one with offspring and spouse here. Hope the Cali interviews go well. Email me and let me know when and where in Cali you will be.
Sigh, I was so hoping you’d be Canadians eh!
I wish you were heading North too. I’ll be praying for all of you as you travel to California.
