Congratulations and best wishes for you new venture from another Master of Theology.

Is this a lay ministry at the university or are you a Deacon?

Matt,

From the time I was 12 years old, until I was in the military, I visited my grandparents in Franklin. Since they have passed on, my extended family still has the family 'compound' there in the mountains. We all still make the treck from all over the country, to enjoy the mountains and each other's company. I remember my grandfather taking me to the STM at the old place and year by year visiting and seeing the great changes. I'm a member and most likely will always be a member. You have been an inspiration and a valued advisor to so many. Thank you for all you have done and will continue to do through the STM.

Thank you for helping me make the 'Oren Peterson" tartan to honor my grandfather, and thank you for all the advice you've given.

I wish you good luck on your new path--again you are showing us an example of integrity by following your calling.

Just as long as you don't stop making and offering your superlative kilts, it is all good! Congratulations on your new life changes. More power to you if this is what makes you happy.

Best wishes for the new position. I hope you'll still find time for xmarks. I've enjoyed reading your posts and learning from you.

Big changes for you, but congratulations...new challenges. It seems to me that you are leaving the Museum in more-than-competent hands!

Matt a very interesting story and quite remarkable. Congratulations to you and the best of luck.

Congratulations and best wishes, Matt, on your advancement in your chosen career in the ministry. You are such a vital part of XMarks, and I am glad that you will continue your work with the museum and on your kiltmaking as time allows. You have a lot of irons in the fire, busy man!
