Tomorrow is finally the big day that I have been waiting for. The Commissioning/Ordination service will be tomorrow morning at 10:00 AM. We have been told that we are to be in our places at 9:30 AM robed and ready. That actually sounds good, I should actually be able to sleep in a bit tomorrow:) That is very unusual for a Sunday.
Actually, it is after 10:30 PM and we just got back to our room after a very long but yet extremely rewarding day of conference that began before 7:00 this morning. We had a wonderful experience this afternoon when we went with our new District on a local mission here in the Muncie area. Our group went to a nursing home, while other groups painted, picked up trash, worked in food banks and a dozen other community projects. It was an awesome experience and it was an example of what we should be about as Christians.
Tonight was a worship celebration centered around our mission work for the day. It was one of the most memorable worship experiences I have ever had at Annual Conference. Even the Bishop seemed to be more emotional than usual.
I continue to cherish these very special days, endeavoring to savor every moment. Tomorrow will be very special!
Blessings
