Life of a Pastor/Mother
I am a pastor and a mother. For 2012, I decided to chronicle my Sundays as a Pastor/Mother. I have two children – a son who is 7 and a daughter who is 3. Overall, they are really great kids, but because they are kids, they also bring challenges and moments I could never prepare for. They also provide opportunities to see things in a different light and perspective.
2012 proves to be a busy year for me. Unlike years past, in addition to juggling my life as a pastor and a mother, I am also moderator of my presbytery as well as traveling a bit more speaking at conferences. So not only will my kids be dragged to and affected by my work at the church, but also a myriad of meetings and my days away as well.
I know many pastor/mothers juggle their life. By sharing my experience, I hope you will share yours.
