On Saturday morning, each district superintendent knelt down to be prayed for for their work and for their churches and clergy. It is wild to me that this was my fourth time kneeling at the altar rail - and that I start my fourth year as a DS in July along with my second year as the Director of the Office of Clergy Excellence. This will be my 25th year of ministry as a pastor in the Florida Conference.
And then it was time for the licensing, commissioning and ordination service. Here I am with one of our summer pastoral interns.
And this is our annual Cabinet picture.
With our newly commissioned provisional elders, Rev. Elan Miavitz Brown and Rev. Chandra Snell
With a few of the pastors that I supervise.
And here is our little band of three back together - best clergy staff ever.
And my amazing partner in the Office of Clergy Excellence - Holly FInley.
A bunch of our Community UMC friends were there to see their associate pastor get ordained. We ran into Miss Faye, the children's minister.
Afterwards we went to lunch with the Hills before heading home.
