THE COST OF THE PRESENT MODEL

From Rectory Porch-

There are a lot of reasons why we need to start exploring new models of ministry in the life of the Episcopal Church today. Most of these reasons, for me, have to do with a genuine and gospel-based desire to be more collegial and collaborative and mission-minded – to get over ourselves, get outside of ourselves, and better form disciples of Jesus Christ. That argument goes over pretty well with my  colleagues and the lay leaders I have the pleasure of working with at St. George’s, Valley Lee. I’m also blessed that several neighbor Episcopal congregations – their clergy and lay leaders – are also on board with this desire to do more and be more, together.
