10/20/10 Today we had the Austin District Professionals meeting at Manor UMC. We preachers love to talk and to talk to each other and to talk about each other, so the first 45 minutes was spent in eating and drinking and visiting in the fellowship hall. Then we went to the sanctuary where the business agenda and the worship service were combined in an order that went together pretty. We were challenged by statistics of level attendance numbers in a metropolitan area that has been rapidly growing. We were encourgaged by the start of Servant Church, for 20-30 year olds. We were uplifted by a connection with Dieke clinic in Sierra Leone. We sang and we prayed. We heard the word of God preached. We celebrated the sacrament of communion. I left this morning well-fed.
Love,
Lynn
