My Resignation

September 17, 2008

Dear Pintlala Baptist Church,

I have had the honor and privilege of serving along side you and your students for the past three years as part-time student minister. I have seen God work in and through these students in many different settings and circumstances. Thank you for this opportunity, many of you have been a blessing to me.

That being said, there comes a time when we must make a choice. Through much prayer, thought, deliberation, and conversation over the last few weeks and months about where it is that God wants me, the conclusion is that I am called elsewhere. So, as of Sunday, September 21, 2008, I hereby resign my position as Minister to Students at Pintlala Baptist Church.

I want to encourage you, my brothers and sisters in the faith, to keep struggling, to keep wrestling with God, to keep seeking growth and change, to keep on discovering what it means for you to follow Jesus here at Pintlala Baptist Church.

May “The LORD bless you, and keep you; the LORD make His face shine on you, and be gracious to you; the LORD lift up His countenance on you, and give you peace.'

Numbers 6:24-26.
Only Because of Him,
Rebecca N. Helms
