Sometimes you just need a day off!
For a pastor, that tends to come in the middle of the week. Never on a Sunday! Unless you are holidaying!
We were scheduled for a weekend in Winnipeg. Attending a wedding.
Then an unexpected death and a funeral service. Our planned trip was cancelled. As far as funerals go, this was one where the destiny was sure, and thus the service was a joy to officiate.
Since the Sunday service was already arranged, we decided to head to Saskatoon immediately following the Saturday funeral luncheon. Our Bible quizzing team was there and we visited with them in the evening. Then Sunday morning we headed to a church that was in the middle of “40 Days of Community.” By Sunday night we were back in Kindersley.
Better is one day – than none at all.
