There's Been a Change

Transcript


PN: Hey St. Peter's. Yesterday we had a change to policy-based governance and we're really excited about it. We saw some good things in the voter’s meeting. Everybody was working together and we had the opportunity to stand up together as a congregation and say, “This is what we would like to see happen.” That is something I'm really proud of, and I know Pastor McDowell is proud of it too. 


PM: You know, I was sitting next to somebody that wants to get more involved with our congregation and they were thinking, “Do all meetings go this well whenever there's a big decision?” Not always, but we're thankful for that happening this time. I'm also thankful to see people already coming in and asking, “How can we work together and move forward in this process together.” Pastor Nate, I know that you've had conversations here, even in just the first few hours Monday morning.


PN: I have, and it’s exciting. We're hitting the ground running and we're making sure that everything's moving forward. And we're really glad to see that happening, because St. Peter's is moving toward the future and we're moving with it, and working together. 


PM: Absolutely. Working together with you and for you. I know that all of the staff, all of the volunteers are just really looking forward to understanding how we will continue doing this and continue doing it well. 


PN: Yes, peace be with you and thanks for being a part of this process with us. God's blessings.
