“Abracadabra!” rang out across the sanctuary where Presbytery of the James was conducting its 113th meeting on February 18. Explaining the word’s Hebrew meaning, Lead Presbyter Flo Barbee-Watkins introduced the new vision and model of serving happening in the presbytery as a result of the strategic plan approved in 2021.
With imagery of a team of rock climbers working in tandem, the three presbyters described their roles supporting ministers, ruling elders, Christian educators, commissioned pastors and committee volunteers. You answered God’s call to climb, but you are not climbing alone, in isolation. You are connected through our presbytery.
