Elder Statesman
My father just told me that he’s going to be nominated to be an Elder at his church this coming Sunday.
This is not a surprise. He and my mother were both ordained as deacons at the same time, with me laying hands on both of them (I had been ordained the year before). Now that he is retired he’s looking for something to do and asked his pastor to fill that need.
Of course, when I told Carolyn that Dad was going to be an elder, she said, “But he already is!”
