A Tribute to the Swatter




My friend Jason (Ethan knows him as Mister Near/Far) has decided it is time to step down from his position as worship team leader at his Church. He has been the worship team leader there for about six years and was a member of the team for about a year and a half before that. This Sunday is his last Sunday in this position and they are having a send off for him.

The Church he is at also happens to be the one I started about Nine years ago in West Sacramento. So, Jason was a member of the team that helped get our church up and running and has been a key leader in the Church for about two years while I was there and in the four years since. He is also a great friend.

It is easy for us to overlook the contributions people make both into the organizations we are a part of and into our lives. Jason has done a great job in the position at the Church and has always been loyal, trustworthy and able to put up with stuff from his friends. So, even though he is being replaced, I am sure he will be greatly missed at the Church

I plan on keeping him as a friend.
