Great blog. Gives us a little insight into the cost of being Moderator of the Church of Scotland.
A little text to carry with you:
Remember God who is great and awesome and then fight with all your might. Nehemiah 4:14
Remember God , he is for you and he loves you. then fight with all your might for the lives and hearts of people far from God.
Fight with all your might for the unity of God’s people.
Fight with all your might to build churches where the lost are found and the saints encouraged and where God gets the credit for it all.
God bless you Albert.

I am very excited for both you and Martha, Albert! You will have a sparkling week, to be followed by a year when you will do so much good as you tour around on behalf of the Church of Scotland. God bless you on your journeys!

I hope that you really enjoy your time as Moderator Albert. I also hope that you are able to use your time to make effective changes where they are needed. Always remember the words of the Apostle Paul “I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me.”

God bless you Albert. God has chosen you at a significant time for the Church, not just in Scotland but around the world. Be yourself for Christ..

Hey Albert - we are delighted to take a back seat to let you, as God has asked you to do, take a front one!!
We don’t sit back though.
Our job is just as important as yours (forgive me for bursting your bubble!!). Ours is to pray for you… to encourage and support you… to be there for you as you (and we) fulfil God’s calling over these next few months.
that’s teamwork! Recognising our distinctive roles under God, as step by step he leads us all.
Have a wonderful, blessed, inspirational yesr. Love to youz both!
Susan and Derek (Dornoch)
