I completed two very full weeks of work and travel. It was a blessing to be with those offering themselves for the episcopacy and ordination in the UMC. It was a delight to spend so much time with friends. I needed connection and laughter. Now I’m ready for time with my family.

Proud of @ssnich
Three unsung heroes of the cycle- @KeenaRenee03 Democratic Chair of House redistricting.
@ssnich & @AndyHatem who spent MONTHS pouring over data and drawing maps.
The work the 3 of them did in 2021 gave us the the chance to win last night (and beyond!)

Today I told Abram I loved him as he walked to the bus. He responded “cool!” I asked “why cool?” he said I knew he loved me even if he didn’t say it. I thought it was a memory I’d carry with me if anything were to happen. Because it keeps happening in our schools.Praying for StL.

Got to substitute teach Prophets and Wisdom Literature for COS @spst1958, and it was fun to teach a Bible course again (even if just for the fall course).
But the funny part was that my watch recorded 25 active minutes while I taught via Zoom. I may talk with my hands a bit.

UMCOR's legacy of "early in, last out" is true for #HurricaneIan, one of the most devastating storms to hit the U.S. in years. Learn more about UMCOR's initial response and plans for long-term support, including how you can help. umcmission.org/news-statemen…
It’s my dad’s birthday. I wish I could wake him just a few more questions or take one more family vacation or enjoy his bbq chicken again.
But most of all, I wish our boys knew what a fabulous grandpa he was. I especially miss him for them.

The boys told me they couldn’t clean the car tonight because it is their sabbath. They are listening, @RichBartow.

It will take some time to fully assess #HurricaneIan’s devastation in Florida. Already @UMC_UMCOR has released a $10,000 grant to @FLUMC for urgent services and supplies. You can help people affected by Ian with your prayers and financial gifts. advance.umcor.org/p-620-umco…
