Pastor Dan Eggold accepts the Divine Call
The Call Committee received the following letter from Pastor Eggold on Saturday, August 2nd.
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ at St. Peter's,
Grace and peace to you in Christ!
The past three weeks have been a time of much prayer and personal reflection for me and my family as we've considered where the Lord would have me serve as pastor. I thank you for keeping us in your prayers throughout this process, and especially for the warm hospitality you showed during our recent visit.
It is with joy that I write to inform you that I have accepted God's call to serve as your pastor. I look forward to meeting and getting to know each of you in the months ahead. I am especially looking forward to working with such a wonderful church and school faculty and staff, and to serving alongside you in the mission God has entrusted to St. Peter's. I trust that God will bless this decision and the future ministry of the church and school as we move forward together under His grace and guidance.
Please continue to keep my family and me in your prayers during the weeks ahead, that the Lord will guide both the closing of one chapter and the beginning of another. I also ask your prayers for the people of Grace Lutheran Church as they prepare for their own time of transition. We keep you and the ongoing ministry of St. Peter's in our hearts and prayers, and we are eager to walk with you into this next season of life together.
In Christ,
Pastor Eggold
