LOCAL GUYS

Spent a good couple of hours with nine other local pastors this morning. we generally meet once a month, drink some coffee, talk about what's going on and then pray for a while. Nobody's there to impress, so there are no egos flying around and it's a comfortable place to share with others who are building church in the Patchogue/Medford area.

Of course, we're in a different town altogether nowadays, but these are some guys I've got close to over the past several years, so the fact we're in Ronkonkoma changes nothing.

Over the years I've had my fill of self-centered separatists who are so threatened by every other pastor on the planet that they fellowship with none.

We all need each other. I was blessed to be part of a small group of well connected pastors back in Scotland and it seems that at last something similar has developed here.

It's good!
