Ken, thanks for bringing the list uo to date. It appears that you have some major profession and location changes to make in 2007. Based on your photos it appears that you now are in a nice area with interesting people.
Based on my past corporate involvement, I can understand a prospective employer obtaining information on the applicant but I wonder why the Feds, FBI, would be involved? It certainly would'nt be at the request of the prospective employer? If the FBI has to check all these church position changes they must be quite busy.
We wish you the best for 2007 and beyond and look forward to those Rollei Magic pictures.

He used to contribute regularly and I appreciated the pictures he posted.RogerHi, Roger, et.al.:Yep, I'm still around, but enmeshed in the holiday, writing three sermons for this coming Sunday, and trying to find another job so I can pay rent, bills, and buy film. :-)My present position ends January 14. I've been doing Intentional Interim Ministry for a little over 5 years, since my wife died, and am ready to get settled in a permanent position. So, I've had to spend most of my free time updating my professional profile (resume), and that is an extraordinarily time-consuming process these days.As most you know from reading the news, clergy are now under the spotlight, so we have to jump through hoops, more or less, to maintain our official standing and be hired. (FBI background checks, etc.)Not much fun, but it's got to be done, and in the long run, probably will be good for us all.I'm still reading all the posts, looking at pictures, admiring all the great work, and as soon as things settle down a bit, I'll be back. I've got a roll of film in my sweet Rollei Magic II right now and hope to get some pictures shot within the next week or so.And, FWIW, I had an offer for my 2.8F which I couldn't refuse, so I sold it, to a budding professional photographer (friend of the family). She was willing to pay what I asked. I've still got my 3.5 and Rolleicord, and now the Magic, but I'll be looking for another 2.8 sometime next year, if anybody has a nice one they might want to dispose of.And, I still have a lens I'm trying out, sent to me by one of the list members, and I really haven't had the time to do much with it.Peace to you all in this season.And, thanks for thinking of me. It will be wonderful to have all this behind me, but in the meantime I'm not wishing it away. Life is good.Ken ----------------------------------- The Rev.
