Administrators Jim_Alaska Posted October 31, 2016 Administrators Share Posted October 31, 2016 That is the correct attitude bro. Mike. I wish you well and continue in prayer for your and your churches situation. Rest assured that there is reward in heaven for such dedication.

Moderators Ukulelemike Posted October 31, 2016 Author Moderators Share Posted October 31, 2016 Thanks, Brother. yes, you've been here, and while I wasn't able to give you the grand tour, (lol), you have seen the fun we get to deal with. But it is all good-I'm not cut out of the right cloth to pastor a big church-I'm a little weird, so the Lord made me pastor of the weird, and it is a good fit.

Administrators Jim_Alaska Posted October 31, 2016 Administrators Share Posted October 31, 2016 I can appreciate your last post Bro. Mike. But I must say that I hope you don't give the address of this site to any in your congregation. lol Ukulelemike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Ukulelemike Posted October 31, 2016 Author Moderators Share Posted October 31, 2016 They already know all this, lol. We are all kind of weird together. Not in a bad way, mind you--let's just say we try to put the "Fun" in "Fundamentalism". Jim_Alaska 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members weary warrior Posted January 4, 2017 Members Share Posted January 4, 2017 As someone who has had works on the foreign mission field, pastored here in the US and am currently headed to a "home missions" ministry, I believe each incident has to be approached independently. I was supported when I served in PNG,as  it was illegal for me to work and I was in the remote jungle. When the churches there were handed over to local pastors and I returned stateside, I had to get a job when I took the pastorate of a tiny church in the rural south. I am now getting ready to head to New Mexico to the Navajo Reservation to take over a work in the remote middle-of-no-where that has been without a pastor/missionary for almost 3 years. There is no work / town / employment within 60 miles and only about 9 remaining members, and thus I am once again being supported by some like-minded local churches. My particular mission has always seemed to fall toward helping struggling, hurting works recuperate, and that sort of work never lends itself to landing in a comfortable, salaried position. I work where I can, and trust God always. A "missionary" is a "sent one", and some of us get sent to all kinds of places, including home.
