10. I've been in your shoes

One Sunday, I got a call from the pastor’s son that his dad had appendicitis and wouldn’t be at church. As I was the Clerk of Session, I had to cover. Since I knew the order of service, the hymns and the congregation, I knew everyone would be concerned about our pastor and would be happy to congregate in his absence.

You’ve got this.

Express your faith and use a little humor. A positive expression will carry you through.
