Bro. Welch,
It isn't just you. I can think of four UPC churches (two of which run
1500+ in membership) which have been "handed-down" from father to son.
Sometimes it works very well; sometimes it doesn't work at all.
<<Euless (TX) 1st UPC -- when I was there the assts and other ministers
were totally unrelated, but last I heard his son-in-law, who is very
capable, has moved back so he might have been made an asst. But I
don't know.>>
Bro. Richard,
Bro. MacLaughlin is now asst. pastor and doing a very capable job. God
brought in the right person at the right time. He just happened to be
related to the pastor. :)
