BTW.... I am aware that a lady pastor is a bit unconventional in some circles, and we hope you'll understand. "Pastor Rebecca" is only her first name to protect her privacy on the 'net.... and she was pastor to my grandparents. She eulogized my grandmother and my mom with the real love of someone who knew them well. She spent many mornings at that beach house with my grandma, and for us, she is a tie to those lost who I would have loved to have been there.

The church we attend has a female "pastor." They deliberated quite a while about what to call her when she graduated. They call her Pastora Karla.

Oh, I only tease. It is entirely your affair, of course. My opinions are, as always, available on request (and sometimes even without one), but it was just a tease.

As you'd expect!!!

I do have to admit that my immediate reaction to "lady pastor" would be something along the lines of "not that there's anything wrong with that".

I've met some wonderful Christian women who might make good pastors. I'm sure a lot of female pastors are quite good. And I know a lot of people at the Hole would really disagree with my opinion that women have a different opinion.

But this is your wedding. If she makes you happy, then absolutely you should have her! And I bet she's a really nice woman.
