Churches, like governments, have "cabinet reshuffles" -- at least, those Churches whose elders and deacons carry portfolios. Here are my notes of one such reshuffle: a new property steward, a new worship deaconess -- and a new portfolio, a charity deaconess. A new accountant in training, existing accountant to missions and evangelism. Honorary treasurer the same, youth deacon the same, elders and life deacons the same, honorary secretary the same, staff portfolio the same. OBSERVATION: Such juggling requires an enormous amount of thought, prayer, and networking. I have always emphasised calling to a portfolio, above function.
