The 47th Yellowstone Annual Conference has already been something of a mixed bag for us and that was just on the first day!
In the clergy session Thursday morning, Charles' conference membership was officially changed from the Great Plains Conference (he was ordained in Nebraska in 1996) to the Yellowstone Conference. It is hard to describe how it feels to finally be 'at home' in a conference after five years of being a member of one conference while serving in another (first SWTX and then Yellowstone).
Belinda, who is here representing the Stevensville UMC as the lay member of annual conference, has been busy with circuit meetings, UMW functions (including the wonderful conference UMW luncheon), and with being selected to the Conference nominations committee for next year!
Charles has sadly been struck by an acute flare-up of gout which hobbled him all day Thursday. By that evening he was in the ER due to the swelling and pain. As a result he's been in bed in the hotel all day Friday, not the way he wanted to spend his annual conference session!
