Brothers and Sisters,
This coming Sunday, we’ll be holding our first rector’s forum, which I’m planning to implement on a monthly basis. The rector’s forum is an opportunity for me to share with you what’s on my heart and mind about the mission, vision, and direction of our congregation and an opportunity for you to bring questions you might have about what’s happening at Christ the Redeemer (or questions about the Bible and theology). The mission of our congregation is something that all of us share together, so I’m very excited about the opportunity to talk with many of you about our mission, in this format, on a regular basis.
In this first session of the rector’s forum, I’m going to be talking in detail about the church renewal process that our congregation is participating in as a part of our wider diocesan renewal initiative. Specifically, I’d like to present some thoughts about the process of renewal, as well as what it means for our life together and for our strategic planning. My hope is that I will be able to communicate to you just how excited I am, and why I’m so excited, about the future of our congregation.
I’m looking forward to sharing what’s on my heart with you this coming Sunday. I encourage you to come with your questions. I hope to see you there.
In Christ,
Fr. Caleb
