It’s impossible to wrap-up five years of ministry. There are too many memories. Too many good times. Too much fun. Too many 6:00 AM Bible studies. Too many tough times. Too many scary phone calls. But you can try. And some of my former students did a very nice job putting together this video for me on my last “official day” as a pastor in Romeo. They know I’m not sappy and teary. But I am sentimental… I love this video. It’s super cool.

While ministry in Romeo has come to an end… two things are worth saying. First, I’m not done in ministry, I am not hanging up my Pastor super-hero costume just yet. Second, being done at Romeo doesn’t mean you’re going to see me on “Pastor’s Gone Wild.” I’ll be the same person when I wake up in the morning that I’ve been for the last 5 years. I have the same passions. I will think the same things. I will be invested just as much in the lives of students and parents. I’ll just have a slightly different focus and zip code.

And the deal for these former students remains open… if they can survive the sex talk and other fun parts of pre-marital counseling, I’ll happily come back to perform their weddings.

I dunno, Autumn… you know the difference between “funk” and that other word, right? You know… she is so innocent I doubt she’s ever heard that word. ;)

Speaking as the young girls mother, she knows! I was so embarrassed Sunday. That’s my girl!

It’s true. I tossed out a challenge for some students to come to a Bible study before school… I thought 2 students would come for like 2 weeks and then quit.

5 students came for 2 years. Every Tuesday morning at 6:00 we cracked open the Bible and spent an hour drinking coffee, praying for one another, and studying God’s Word.

Lesson there, be careful what you wish for!

@tony. Thanks, God has definitely done some awesome things with students lives while we were here in Romeo. I can’t wait to hear what God will do from here on out.
