Life’s destination is personal but the journey is one of those things that takes people in different directions and has its own unique story. How you get to where you are going depends on the mode of transport. I am learning this lesson lately and when I get things figured out I will be sure to share. The key is to live and love as much as you can along the way.

Trees Budding
These trees at church are starting to bud just a little early. Freaky weather.
Someone is sticking to their message
Wonder if they can see through all this.
Blue Sky Sunday
Haven’t seen a blue sky in awhile due to all the rain we’ve had here lately. It’s nice to see it and some golden rays of sunlight.
Have a great Sunday friends.
It’s Rained So Much Here in #Chattanooga
I have talked about the intense rain we have had here in Chattanooga and south east Tennessee this week. Well today the effects of that constant rain were made very apparent in how much damage its caused.
This is what is left of a Subway sandwich shop after a mudslide destroyed it. There is so much water in the ground that it just gave way and leveled the building. Fortunately there were no customers inside at the time. Next to it is a popular barbecue restaurant that has been closed for the day for safety reasons.
There is lots of standing water all over the area. Friday the local school system closed out of precaution. We are tired of the rain and hope to dry out in the coming days.
An Important UMC Decision #umc #lbgtq
As a former member of the United Methodist Church I am watching with care the proceedings at the called General Conference in St. Louis, Missouri regarding issues of sexuality and the denomination. This is not a easy time for the children of Wesley but its a time for decisions to be made for the future of their denomination. I support the inclusion, full participation and full access to sacramental rites of LGBTQ believers as I do in The Episcopal Church.
It is time that bold moves to build bridges, create opportunities and help everyone become a part of the life of the community of saints. There is opposition to inclusion and I realize that but I implore a spirit of openness, love and grace be upon those who will be leading this important conversation.
