Pastor Leaving

Well the senior pastor is leaving our church to go to Roseburg Oregon. This presents some very exciting opportunities for me as well as some pretty scary options. I would love to be a youth pastor type forever but with the pastor leaving I will be taking care of a lot of the stuff that he would normally do. I this presents some interesting issues,

First I am only paid part time, and taking on more responsibility means that I will have to commit more time than I am currently getting paid for. I am ready for the challenge but I do have bills to pay and spending more time doing church stuff will mean that I will have to cut hours at my other part time job. Thus I will be making less money. But If it is in fact what God wants me to do I will be more than happy to do it and I trust that God will provide.

Second It is possible although not likely, that I could be hired on full time as the senior pastor. Something that I am not sure that I want.

Either way I have a lot of praying to do. And I would appreciate any and all prayers that you all (whoever you are) would pray for me.
