Our interim senior pastor (Eric Ottum) is leaving Central after 9.5 months here. We're getting a new senior pastor (Glenn Peterson) next week. How exciting!
We had a staff lunch/potluck today to wish Eric the best. One of our traditions as a staff is to write each other bad poetry as a sign of affection at birthdays, welcomes and farewells.
"Bad" poetry is defined as that written in a few minutes before the event is to take place. It should also be, obviously, bad.
Here's the haiku I wrote for today:
Mortimer in hand
Teaching God's love to the kids
Can you hold my mouth?
He's Pastor Awesome
Nine month passes quickly by
We are glad you came.
Thanks, Pr Eric!!!
