Changes to Synod procedure - eek!

For the past couple of months I have been preparing to share my testimony and call to ministry before a fairly small group, referred to as a "listening committee". While this is nerve-wracking enough, at least the intimacy of such a group allows one to clarify one's thoughts if it doesn't come across 100% the first time.

This morning I received a call from Faith Whitby, who informed me that the procedure has been changed for this year's Synod, and now I would need to give my testimpny and call in front of the entire Synod.

Yikes!

Please pray for me - I've heard some horror stories from ministers who went through a similar process in previous Synods when they candidated, and some of them went through a rough ride!
