I started the weekend by worshipping at Pine Island United Methodist Church on Sunday.
On Tuesday, Latricia and I had a meeting with Bishop Berlin to go over the schedule for the week and prep for clergy session. And then Daryl and I attended the cabinet dinner at Garden Bistro on Lake Morton in Lakeland.
I've been doing this fitness and food plan (Faster Way) since February 15. The hotel gym was tiny and pretty bare, so I brought a bunch of my equipment from home to keep up with things.
On Wednesday, I met some of the youth delegation who were interested in calling to ministry for lunch. We had a lovely time together.
Then Bishop Berlin and I led a meeting for all of the extension ministers (those who serve beyond the local church; technically I'm an extension minister as conference staff).
At the evening's picnic, the cabinet competed in a bucket challenge against the youth delegates and we won!
Daryl and I ran into some familiar faces from previous churches too. That was fun!
And then at the Laity kickoff that night, our district lay leader got to speak from the microphone to invite people to give to the Annual Conference Offering.
