Maybe not a sabbatical, but certainly refreshing, renewing, and a time to reinvigorate to return back to the parish.
Peace of the Lord be with you!

Thank you Rev. Educational opportunities are reinvigorating! I’ve appreciated those when I have had them. During this time I’ve been reading a fair amount that have been on my stack for years. Not all are ministry related and some deal with a particular family situation.
I’ve been in ministry since 1996, and this is the first time I’ve been given a sabbatical. I’m truly grateful.
