you are an advisor. don't reply to all. stay in monitoring the activity and observe and give me a comment to me only. your ministry experience will be very helpful to me. otherwise, i have to pull your name off the list.

I wrote: Hey, Sam here is another comment to you only. You make this meeting so important to dicuss about the need's of our church (Hillside Ministry). I think before you call any meeting you should discuss it within the Hillside Leader's Meeting before you call any meeting. If you want to just talk about the ministry's need we could do it over the via e-mail. And yes I will advise you and serve this ministry the best way I know how through God's help but I will not be just an observe. I have much concerns as you do. Just, because I will be in full-time ministry don't mean I am going away from our Hillside Ministry. And yes, when I apply for the part-time minsitry at our church I will not only ask for Love ministry but also College Ministry! I stiil would like to work with College students. Kind of like Hyung has the heart for college ministry. You always tell me that we should let younger people take over well; I agree with you in some ways but someday you sam and hyung will be an Elder of our Hillside Ministry then what are you going to do. As an Elder, not only you have to lead a Cell Group and be involved in Administration and Teaching. Their are two type of Elder's administration and Teaching Elder (which include Pastor's). Also, as a future deacon in Hillside ministry ( the word deacon means to serve it doesn't means to stay out of the ministry. As an Deacon you need to be more active then a College leader, Cell Group leaders. So, don't tell me that we need to pull away from any ministry. I like the sermon on Stop dating the church we should make a committement to the church including serving our Hillside Ministry. So, don't tell me or any one else to step away from the ministry. Otherwise, you'll have less people serviing the church and making a committement for him. Just, look at Elder Kwon's life did he quiet serving God in the church and outside of church. I don't think so. I think Elder Kwon even more busy with Afghanistan/NEI but also as an Elder he still has a committement to this church by showing up to the Elder's Meeting. He don't have to do that but that the committement he made with God and this Church. And yes your right when you say I do have ministry experience, with our group I know what works and what doesn't work. You remember when we had no Pastor. Well, Elder Kwon asked me what I thought about Pastor David, you know what I told him. I told Elder Kwon that Pastor David would be great for our ministry because he has passion for God and Prayer. I believe that why and how Elder Kwon made his discission to have Pastor David come to our church as our Pastor. So, If you just want to talk about the need's of the church let us know what are those needs are? And Just because I give you a comment on what date's is good doesn't give you the right to take my name off the list that is just plan wrong. As a leader you do not want to make a stupid mistake like that trust me and God. Well, I hope i wrote everything that I wanted to say. read it in good health. take care.
From: Charles.

P.S. I guess I left these out when I was writing this! When you wrote the e-mail you sound like someone who own hillside ministry but you don't God is the all time Owner of our ministry. I really believe you should of tell us to pray for the need's of the church before you call any meeting. Prayer should come first then any meeting, sure we talk about it all day about our ministry but it would be better to call a prayer meeting instead of a meeting to talk about the need of the church. I think we should take it before God first Sam. That is what a ture leader would do in a circumstance like this. Oh! Sam don't send an e-mail like this again in the future! Here is what Pastor Paul would tell me often; he would say, Charles you need to the Example in this ministry as a leader. So, Sam we need to be the Example to the Freshmen's and work toward building the Kingdom of God. Have a good day.

Sam's Answer back: good stimulation for the morning, charles!
