New Monthly Update

 Friends of Shalom, Happy Easter to you all!  I'm currently writing to you from Salem, Or where Beth and I have been spending the week with our first grandchild! Laura Anne was born on Thursday March 28th to Miriam and Tucker! She's perfect and we're enjoying all the snuggles we can get as well as serving our daughter and son-in-law.  March was a busy month for us. Here are some updates and prayer needs. We've officially moved to Sunday morning! We celebrated our first Sunday on Easter and will continue to meet on Sunday mornings at 10am.  Our core team had their first gathering without me! I was preaching at Holy Trinity in Edmonds one weekend in March and our team led evening prayer, worship, and our community meal. This is a big deal for a new church!  We received a generous financial gift from City Chapel! City Chapel is one of our supporting churches in Bremerton. Pastor Peter Vorhees along with the whole staff there have been a huge support to me and Shalo...

The Ups and Downs of Church Planting, Updates, and The Weekly Word

 Friends of Shalom, As you can imagine, there are ups and downs to church planting. So much emotion can be tied to each week's gathering as we wonder if our regular folks will be there or if anyone new will come. This last week I was discouraged heading into our regular Saturday night gathering because I knew over half our core group wasn't going to be there that night.  A few hours before our meeting, a pastor friend of mine texted me and told me he and his family would be coming. That brought some encouragement. But then as we were about to start two new couples wandered in! I quietly thanked the Lord for bringing some new folks and for keeping us going on this new adventure!  A few updates: - I'm getting close to finishing my ordination exams! This has been a big focus of mine over the last month. - In the month of January we saw over $3,000 come in from outside givers!  - Recently the school that owns the small church we meet in (All Saints Academy) invited us to...

Ordination and Monthly Update

 Friends of Shalom, There's so much to give thanks for! April 2024 will go down as one of the sweetest months of my life.  As most of you know I was ordained to the priesthood on Saturday April 13th! It was a joyous occasion with many of our friends from around Kitsap, several visiting priests, family, and of course our new Bishop Jake Worley.  My ordination was just a few weeks following our official Sunday morning launch. Since then we've seen some new folks joining with us and have been enjoying worship with a full liturgy of the word and the table. I can truly say for the first time it feels like we're gaining some momentum even though we are still small. Things are happening!  We started a men's group and a women's group and are currently reading through The Anglican Way  by Thomas McKenzie. Each group has around 7 participants! And everyone is really enjoying it so far.  We continue to see our folks step up into various roles of service including some...
