Day 3 (cont'd) - Let it Shine!

This evening was fascinating in that we had a wonderful worship service where everyone in a packed civic center was served communion - a daunting task yet somehow possible with the help of God. Again, the power of worship amidst our large group is truly glorious!

Following worship we met in our committee groups. Mine was charged with the task of dealing with the Resolution on Worker Justice at Smithfield. What I thought would be a fairly straightforward deliberation turned into a cyclical and drawn out conversation. Overall I think we reached consensus long before anyone realized it. We will continue the deliberations in the morning at which point I believe the process should be straightforward. We did manage to get our start time moved from 8:30 am to 9:00 am.

Afterwards, I went to a young adult forum where I engaged in interesting dialogue about the resolution to restructure the UCC synod. I am interested in hearing your thoughts and any reflections on this issue. Many points were raised that I had not previously considered.
