Apparently, the folks on the church staff have decided to delay new officer training and the ordination/installation service to September.  One reason is that our senior Pastor will be at General Assembly on the date previously mentioned.

By the Book of Order that means that I’m actually not serving on the Board of Deacons until I am installed, but I will be happy to volunteer for duty during the summer as required.  I guess this means that the Session will have to meet using the old group all the way through the fall, since they are the examining body that will approve the new officers.

UPDATE 6/18:  It looks like installation will be on 9/14, with officer training on 9/6.
