Some of our congregations are going through a time of change as long-time
pastors are retiring. Larry Dentler has already retired from Bermudian. Gerry
Godfrey is retiring from Hanover and Del Keeney is retiring from Mechanicsburg.
So, 2022 will be a new chapter in both their and congregation’s lives. God
already has in mind the perfect leadership for the congregations and all we must
do is honestly seek His mind.
But you know, amid change, one thing is true: God’s got this! The very end of
Psalm 121 reminds us “the Lord will watch over your coming and going both
now and evermore.” This is a verse I turn to many times, and I hope it
encourages you whatever change is in front of you.
