					<description><![CDATA[Mike, might I add to your list the stress of pitching in to help neighboring congregations, or sibling congregations in the same denomination, whose leaders have no idea how to do the technology, or, in my case, left during the pandemic.  My observation and experience is that these congregations seldom acknowledge, let alone thank, the leaders who step into the gap for them.  It is just seen as part of &quot;being church&#039;, and met with a sense of entitlement, rather than gratitude.  It doubles the workload without much, or any, increase in compensation]]></description>
