I'm formerly a Communication Specialist with CRCNA Ministry Support Services and was one of the original members of the Network Support Team. In mid-April 2016 I moved on to new adventures in Indiana a couple of hours away from Grand Rapids, MI.
Thanks for sharing your perspective and for all of your contributions to the Sunday School network. We hope you'll continue to be a contributor even as you head into "retirement."
We've all enjoyed working with you and following your posts on this network week-by-week. I hope you won't be a stranger and that we'll see more of you in the future as you enter "guide retirement."
We've tossed around the possibility of offering webinars at some different times over the summer months, but nothing is firmed up yet. Would you be able to attend any if we were to offer them during noon to 1:00 p.m. PST? My thinking is that there are others on the West Coast who might appreciate a webinar that works with their lunch hour.
Paul- I am sorry that Karl has been unable to respond to your inquiry. He is currently away from the office and will be able to respond when he returns (if not sooner).
Jolanda - another great idea (like last week's "Beat the Winter Blahs"). Not only do these sound like great ideas to use with kids but I know some adult groups that could benefit from these as well! Thanks for helping us all to keep things "fresh" in ministry.
In response to your request we've added a link to the materials that were discussed in the webinar along with a link to the outline that was sent to webinar participants.
Thanks for posting this. I was moved to tears. I think we sometimes have a much too narrow interpretation of what would characterize "signs and wonders" that are spoken of in scripture. I think in today's world this happening certainly qualifies!

JCD,
You've come a long way since How in the World Do I Start a Blogpost? and "Why I Don't Tweet." It won't be the same without you and your rare sense of humour. Don't forget to write!

Hi Keith,
In what publication did you see a reference to this blog as "one of the 'latest' articles in the Network?"

Jim,
What about posting this as a topic within the "Church Libraries" discussion forum? http://network.crcna.org/forums/discussion-networks/church-libraries
