Sunday started with worship at Pine Island UMC near Fort Myers. The Rev. Sharon Jones recently began serving there as an interim pastor. It was a great worship service.
Then I drove up to Bradenton for our first Mission Field Charge Conference of the season for the Manatee East group at Trinity UMC in Bradenton - 6 churches gathered together for worship, communion and approving the business for 2027.
Monday I spent at First UMC Bradenton meeting with the West Manatee Mission Field pastors for clergy one-on-ones. They had this very interesting plaque in the hallway outside the parlor where we were meeting - dedicated to the young men of the congregation who fought in World War 1.
Tuesday I Zoomed from home and Wednesday I spent at the office. Also on Wednesday I had a breakfast meeting downtown with Rev. Nick Lee dreaming about the future of new church starts in our district.
