We have begun

We had an inspiring opening worship service.  Over 4,700 people were in attendance.  A mass choir from the Florida Annual Conference shared musical leadership along with the General Conference "band."  Fabulous.  Holy Communion was shared following Bishop Goodpastor's message.  The offering for the causes listed in my previous post was over $16,000 !!  Hallelujah!

We are now learning how to work together as a "holy" conference.  All is offered with care for every unique need and utilizing the many God-given gifts of folks present.  Being a global denomination - body of Christ - we have a unique richness and diversity among the body.  We also face the challenges of communicating with everyone effectively.  

Live streaming is available through the General Conference website for our worship services and plenary sessions.  I encourage you to "check it out!"
