Dear CCSF Family, 

It is with a profound sense of gratitude and sadness that I will conclude my pastoral staff role at the end of August. Over the past ten years, you have challenged, inspired, and taught me so much. Life and ministry among you have taken me places I could not have imagined. Questions I didn’t know to ask, new directions that once felt impossible, long stretches of wilderness leading to deep wellsprings, incredible vistas from some grand mountaintops – these and so much more are the gifts I have received from this amazing community of faith. 

In the next chapter, as I continue to work at integrating my teaching and pastoral vocations, the lessons learned here, and above all the relationships built here, will carry me. For all the ways you have shared in this leg of the journey, I want to express my deepest thanks. 

Wishing you every blessing,
Peter
