A while back (about 7 weeks ago) my female minister asked what I was doing on 24th May. Her and her husband (my other part-time minister) are away that Sunday. She was wondering if I'd be able to do the service. The whole service. At both churches (it's a linked charge). "Err, mmh...I suppose". Okay, not the most positive of answers, but I was racking my brains for a reason not to do it.
So, I'm the preacher/sermoniser (I don't know what to call myself) on Sunday. I currently should be writing at least an order of service, but procrastination comes much easier. I have chosen the readings from the lectionary , so that's a start. I've even read the various resources I have been given and come across. Even the Starters for Sunday seem quiet helpful this week.
The thing I'm worried about is mainly my last sermon (which was also my first sermon) went down very well. Everyone who has heard I'm doing the whole service on Sunday has commented how good my last sermon was. No pressure then. Looks like I've set the bar high for myself. I'm sure it'll be okay. Besides, what's the worst that could happen? I get asked to do pulpit supply?!
