Peoria or bust!

As I write today I am only half here…the other half is continually going thru a mental check list of what I need and what will be going on at Annual Conference later this week. We meet annually to conduct the business of the conference but more important, at least for me, is the opportunity to worship. There will be a memorial service, a service of ordination, a service for those retiring, and finally, a service of appointments. It is great to meet with several of my colleagues and friends that, because of geographical distances, I no longer see routinely…it is even better to meet God there! If you haven’t started yet, begin praying for the conference today…for the business meetings, for the services, for traveling mercies for all those attending. If you want you can follow the conference online at http://www.igrc.org/annualsession, where you can even watch a live stream of the business sessions and services. I am not sure exactly what my schedule will be for the rest of the week, but I will try to post some from Peoria between activities. If that doesn’t happen, know this: God is still on the throne!
