Giving thanks for a quick trip to El Paso, one of my favorite cities, for a Lydia Patterson meeting and some 35th anniversary time with my spouse ❤️

The United Methodist Council of Bishops has released a Pastoral Letter in response to the United States elections earlier this week.

"Our baptismal vows call us “to resist evil, injustice, and oppression in whatever forms they present themselves.” We therefore reject rhetoric, policies, and actions that demean or discriminate against any of God's children...” #UMC
