The sign was made several years ago when worship and children's education hour were at the same time - 10:15. Around seven or eight years ago, worship changed to 10 and education for all ages is now at 11:15. Yet, the sign remains unchanged. Why? Because it is cast in solid bronze.
Whoever designed the sign foresaw the changing of pastors. There are removable panels that can be filled in with a pastor name plate.
I know some church traditions that are figuratively set in stone. This is the first time I've run across an aspect of church life that is actually in stone.
Christians used to take pride in a lack of change. The unchanging character of the Church reflected, in their minds, the unchanging character of God. I can see how comforting and reassuring that must have been.
Now, the Church that doesn't embrace change is seen as stuffy. Westminster has gone through many changes in the past several years. We are more comfortable talking about the changing winds of the Holy Spirit in our midst. Unfortunately, they can't make a sign out of wind.
