Greetings!
I know that all of you have a lot going on but I am hoping that a few of you would be willing to participate in a Pastor's Bible Study via email. I am not in a position to have one in our area so I am reaching to others via this wonderful blessing of technology. If you are willing and able please email me at closey(at)winco(dot)net.
Thanks!

Happy Anniversary
A brief post because I thought of you all fondly on Monday. I don't know how many of you preach lectionary, but this Sunday's readings are the very readings that I preached that fateful day three years ago when John 21 vanished from the Bible (if only for a short time).
Just wanted to let you know that I thought of you all (particularly a grinning, chuckling Kim Wilson) and cracked a smile.
Now...if you will excuse me...I need to go look something up in 2nd Mark. I'm preaching on how we can "solve the mysteries of faith" just like Jesus did while driving around in his van.

They called me...God help them!
Hi everyone,
I apologize for not contributing to this blog for a very long time. I am not a very computer literate person and when the old blog went to some type of new blog from Google I was afraid of it and chose not to endanger my computer with a potential virus (Sorry! I am paranoid about these things). Anyway, this is an official notification that I have accepted a call to Edgington Presbyterian Church in Edgington, IL. Edgington is a small town about 15 minutes south of the Quad Cities in Great Rivers Presbytery. Yes, I am the mystery UDTS senior that the Reverend Cheyanna Losey was writing about a couple of months ago. E.P.C. worships between 130-150 on any given Sunday and they are absolutely wonderful people! Graduation is May 12th, Ordination is May 20th, and we move to Edgington the last week of May to begin full time ministry. God help them!
Isaiah is doing well...he is 4.5 months old and growing like a weed. He has Shaylene's eyes and smile, but he has my ears and toes (what more could a baby ask for?!) I have attempted to attach a recent picture of the family from opening day...the Cardinals sure stunk up that day but seem to be doing better. Rebecca is doing well; she is very anxious and excited about moving.
Please feel free to drop a line and let us know how everyone is doing.
In Christ,
Mark
