A doctor has grown to see himself as a servant and healer for Jesus Christ. Mr. Pryor and a group of Palmers have started an alternative service on Friday evenings using music, drama and reflective meditations. Equipping the laity for ministry is Linda Shelton's job. God has sent them here and there is already a place for them. We just do an inventory to find that place.
All meetings begin with prayer and scripture.
Not only does the practice keep everyone focused on the same goal, but Palmer's vestry now spends less than a third of the time on business than previously. We are called to be nothing less than a New Testament Book of Acts church. I believe the parish church is the hope of the world. We need to be the salt, light and leaven for our culture and society. From college student to doctor, homeless outcast to energetic, privileged pre-teen, Palmers are becoming just that.
