Thanks so much Ruth. You were an amazing PA and helped keep me sane! Thanks for the enormous difference you made at a complicated time. I am so grateful for you.

It was the sort of post I knew I wanted – the ability to help train those who would over time take on leadership positions in the church. 31 – goodness *… … I loved many, many aspects of the job. But oh, the hours it required – especially as I was so inexperienced and making lots of mistakes. In the end I knew I faced a choice – job or family. I left after less than 3 years in the position. Never regretted it. Great post – wrong time.
I would like to comment here that it was wonderful having you as principal at RBC and working for you – what a pleasure!! You were greatly appreciated and what you managed to accomplish was truly significant in students’ lives. My current pastor is one of your graduates (from 1992).
It was a sad day for us (admin staff) when you moved on – but we know God always has a plan and we must be obedient. The Lord bless you for all you have meant in the lives of many others.
