[Pinky59]

I have been really excited about clown ministry, until today. It's a long story, but to make it short, my attempts to start something like that at my new church have been rejected (we moved to NC last year, and this church is new to us). I mentioned it to the minister, who sounded excited about it. But when I emailed him, he never replied. (I know he got the email because when I asked him in church on Sunday, he said he had). Then I get the church newsletter today and in it there's a picture of HIM in a clown outfit, saying that he entertained the kids at a special event. He never responded to my email, yet goes on to do it without me. So, I know I should put on my big girl panties and deal with it, but it hurts. It's like I gave him the idea and he ran with it. My husband says there's no excuse for him not responding to my email.
Coincidentally, I get this big packet of clown ministry stuff from Sassy Frass today (Thanks! You're a doll). But I'm bummed and feel like just packing all Pinky's stuff in the attic and forgetting the whole thing.

Sorry to vent. I didn't know who else I could unload on who might understand.
