Seriously, though, I know this is a major concern in many organizations. Bishop Carswell Leonard has presented some conclusions on this subject for our leadership and during the Assembly. He used statistics from a variety of nonprofits. There are a variety of factors preventing the leadership turnover such as economics and generally people living longer and being more healthy. We have presented and discussed the questions but have not arrived at solid answers.

secretary wrote:...we do still have some great worship leaders and musicians left in the church. Don't get me wrong...we don't need entertainment. This year we had neither entertainment nor worship. It s sad when we have better quality and anointed worship in some of our smaller churches than we had at the general assembly...

I also agree with the extended family introductions--it is a very dated and unnecessary tradition.
