Leading at Salisbury

Anisia and I have definitely had another FUN & FULL weekend!! Today, for the very first time, I lead an entire church service for the Salisbury congregation where I am placed. In fact, I led two services: the traditional at 8AM and the contemporary at 9:30AM. I felt so privileged to lead the congregation because for the first time I was dealing with "real people" rather than the tiny community of ALC where I have led small services before. I was a little bit nervous at the start but soon got into it. And, for those following the blog, the new-look beard stayed. In fact, people made many positives comments to me afterwards about the services, but not one mentioned the beard at all! Obviously, my facial hair does not get noticed as much as I might think! Perhaps I need to grow it longer...
