Dear Family of Faith at Tabernacle,
As I write these thoughts to you, my new church family, it is New Year's Eve. I am waiting on family members
to arrive for our annual Christmas get-together. Normally, we meet to exchange gifts before Christmas. This year, we
made plans to meet after Christmas and travel to our daughter's home in Fishers, Indiana. Our son, Clint, who was born
in Carrollton while we were at Tab in the 1970's, will be arriving soon with his family from Hendersonville,
Tennessee. We don't get to visit with our two children and four grandchildren very often now that we all live in different
states. Clint's two boys (12 and 3) and Deanna's son (6) and daughter (8) are growing up so quickly.
There is lots of excitement, anticipation, renewal, and catching up from our last times together; and that is exactly
how I feel about coming back home to Tabernacle.
Thank you for the tremendous vote of confidence! WOW, a unanimous vote, was what we asked the Father
for. This gives us hope that we are willing to allow our Lord to lead us into a new year unified.
Divine perspective, wisdom, illumination, insight, and vision are some of the things that we will seek together in this
coming year. James 1:5 says that he who lacks wisdom, let him ask of God. In Ephesians 1:15-19, Paul leads us to
pray for illumination. As a family of faith, we need illumination from His Word and the wisdom found in walking
closely with Him.
We are going on a Spiritual Adventure together as we learn to daily get on our minds what God has on His
mind. Jerimiah 29:11 states, "I know the plans I have for you...plans to give you hope and a future." My hope is that
Tabernacle's future is one that will glorify the Lord.
I want to get to know ALL of you in the days ahead; so don't hesitate to introduce yourself to me (maybe more than
once until I learn your name). My sermon on Sunday, January 11, 2015 will be from 2 Corinthians 2:14-17. I encourage
you to read this passage of scripture before Sunday as you prepare to hear what God would have you to personally learn
from His Word. Please pray for me as I will be praying for you.
See you Sunday,
Glenn Dyer, Pastor during the Interim

A Note from
The Pastor Search Committee
The Pastor Search Committee would like to
thank all those in the Tabernacle family who
completed the church/pastor profile survey. We
received over 200+ surveys from youth to senior
adults and felt encouraged by the participation and
responses. This information will be a valuable tool
for the Pastor Search Committee as we continue
our work.
We thank you for your support and words of
encouragement and ask that you continue to lift up
Tabernacle and the Pastor Search Committee in
your prayers.
