    To the New pastor’s wife

    December 16, 2015 /

    By Holly Scheer Finishing seminary and getting ready to move the your husband’s first church is an exciting and sometimes scary time. You might end up in a setting that is near family and friends and familiar… or in a place that is totally unfamiliar and new, where you know no one and the culture is different than yours. Since our marriage my husband has gone from field work at a church in Ft Wayne, to a vicarage a short drive from Chicago, to far northern and rural Minnesota, now to Wyoming. Each of these churches has been wildly different in location and size. And each has been a very…

    So Your Husband Just Received His First Call…

    May 18, 2015 /

    Dear Sisters in Christ, It was June 26, 2005.  On that day my husband was ordained and installed as a pastor in the Lord’s Church.  I remember it well.  There was an illicit buzz in the heavy, hot air that filled the sanctuary.  My stomach had been doing regular somersaults since the Call Service a few months prior; it was now out of control.  It was real!  It was happening!  The organ was resounding! The kids and I were all dressed up and ready to go. But…was I ready to go?  Was I ready to be THE “pastor’s wife?” I certainly had been doing some research.  The previous four years I…
