Friday I received an e-mail from a guy (Joe) that I don't know on my school account that I don't give out it is just listed on my facebok. The e-mail said that he got my name from a guy that he works with. The guy he works with goes to my old church and I haven't spoke to him or seen him in over 3 years. Joe's email continued by saying that he is a member of Evangel Heights United Methodist Church and that they are looking for a Youth Pastor and he said that he was told to contact me because I might be interested.
I AM INTERESTED!!! was my reply to his e-mail and we spoke briefly on the phone and he said that he give all my information to his Senior Pastor.
On Monday I got a phone call from the Senior Pastor and we talked for a little bit and he told me that they are still in the very beginning of the process and being so close to Easter they were not going to be doing anything official with the position until after Easter had passed. He told me to send him my resume and that we will go from there.
So it isn't an official position or anything but it is another opportunity that came really out of the blue. This was totally unexpected and in an unexpected place. I have not been applying for any positions since I started school so this was totally a surprise.
One other thing that he told me gave me a little bit of hope was that someone once took a chance on him. I told him that I was just getting started that I was still in school and really have no experience at all with my own group. I told him that I just looking to get started with the first chance and opportunity. That is when he said that someone took a chance with him and the rest is history.
I hope he takes that same kind of chance with me.
More to come as this story develops..
