Happy Birthday Blog
I will continue with my Dominican Republic series today, but first I need to recognize a milestone. Yesterday Pastor's Window celebrated its 5th birthday. Hard to believe I've been blogging for five years. That first day in 2008 I wasn't sure what this would look like and I hoped that I would keep at it. These days I feel the blog has grown with me and become a good place for me to share about my life and discuss Biblical issues as they relate to our lives today. In these 5 years there was only one month (July 2012) that I didn't get at least one entry in the blog.
When I started the blog I had been senior pastor for just over a year, my youngest child (#3) was 8 months old, we were a six months away from hiring Nate as Associate Pastor, I had never traveled to the Dominican Republic and our average attendance at church was between 100-125. Now my youngest child is almost 8 months, we have two Associate pastors along with Cliff and I, I have been to the DR 5 times and our average attendance at church is between 200-240. What a five years it has been on the blog. Here's looking forward to more posts this year and beyond as long as the Lord allows.
