Here are some not great pictures of the party at Richmond. I took some that were even funkier (that's Emily Carroll singing I Celebrate This day--Reliant K song). We just had a beautiful time. There were more than 100 people registered to attend (this was for pastors and significant others) and most showed up. The Fellowship Hall was so beautiful not to mention the sanctuary with maybe 75 poinsettias (red of course). But the best part for me is the beautiful spirit that was present and is present in the district. I just love these people. rs preached a sermon inviting us to wait with purpose, and to keep awake to how God is asking us to be attentive to all those things and people who are around us in which to recognize the presence of Christ. We had six of our pastors offer special music. The organist at Richmond was wonderful. And thanks, North district, for the support, the kind words, and of course, the card with a nice surprise inside...;-) But to be honest this evening was such a deeply joyful thing for me I really don't know how to describe it. It's kinda nice to be at a loss for words.
