One of the highlights of Annual Conference is the renewing of collegial and congregational relationships within our West Ohio connection. To help renew these relationships, I am part of a dinner out during conference week.
This year, we went out to another great walleye and perch restaurant which included pastors and church members representing six churches and three districts. Above is a picture of our group this year. I'm usually not in these pictures since I take them, but they remind me of one of the great things about being United Methodist - we are a connectional church!
Some of these folks met each other for the first time but you would have never known. What unites church members and pastors is the saving grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Plus, fresh perch puts everyone in a good mood!
