I say its time to get back to letting it be good to the Holy Ghost and then to us. Perhaps, as it has been said already, there is a David hidden in the field.

Our main agenda item WAS (past tense) the selection of the man to succeed Bishop Browder as Presbyter, as he has announced he will be stepping down from that role at the 2014 Assembly. That will still go forward, but I suspect that our new additional priority will be some discussion of possible names to be considered for new General Overseer.
I am reading this thread with some interest, because I am pondering and praying about who I would add to the list. Who would I feel confident in nominating? I was all settled in my mind about the A/O Presbyter selection and who I would prefer to serve with, and now this new twist.

I believe a woman serving in leadership--in the very top spot--would be GREAT...would be a giant step forward...for the Body of Christ, and for Pentecostals in general.
Maybe even someone like Kay Horner (though she would KILL me, if she knew that I had mentioned her name...).

My prayer is that your name would be at the top of the list for the A/O position. You have served and lived in this region for many years and there is no question of your love, understanding and committment to the people. Whether you want it or not is another issue. But in all seriousness you would me my first thought and choice. I do pray for wisdom and guideince for the leaders in cogop at this crucial time. Just from me......go slowly, and listen to the voice of the Spirit. My prayers are for the absolute best outcome for the cogop organization. I only met Bro. Howard many years ago at the assembly through Gary and Bonnie, They are in our prayers during this time of transition.
