Church Family,
I wanted to take a moment and communicate with everyone the announcement I made this past Sunday regarding some transitions within our staff leadership team.
On January 1, Jen Abercrombie will begin a new adventure here at FBI as our Minister of Missions and Outreach, discovering all that God has in store for us as missions and evangelism continue to become part of the DNA of who we are. I am excited to see what God is going to do as He uses Jen – and each of us – to build His Kingdom wherever He might call us, both here at home as well as around the world!
So what about our kids? Well, I am excited to say that God has already provided!
Also on January 1, Leslie Myers will begin her new adventure here at FBI as our Minister to Children & Families, using the gifts and skills that God has given her to serve the faith family as we reach and disciple the next generation for Jesus. It has been so obvious – the calling that God has placed on Leslie’s life – and I count it an immense privilege and joy that He has chosen to bless us with her servant leadership!
For a season, there will be some overlap.
We have already begun searching for a new Administrative Assistant for our preschool, Leslie’s current position. And Jen will remain available as Leslie takes the lead with our Children & Families.
Please be praying for both of these ladies and their families (and our Church Family) as we make this transition. And begin praying as well about how God might be calling you to serve in either (or both) of these areas.
God is definitely at work! I’m excited to join you as we join Him!
