Commentary:
The noun version of a verb that already has a noun because the verb was taking from the noun. Still following that? Yeah minster was around first and we verbed the noun to minister. So when we wanted to talk about ministering, we had to come up with another word! I don’t know if any of that is true but it was fund to say.
