Hey everyone! I just returned from our church conference's big annual meeting, and I just have to tell you that I thought of you during the message delivered by a visiting bishop (BTW, TrinityJen, I think he's your bishop!). He spoke of the "Whoosh!" of the Holy Spirit entering at Pentecost and as we work in the present day to make disciples for Christ.

I thought of the "Whoosh!" I sense every time I read the insightful, creative, encouraging, heartfelt words of the contributors to this message board. I thought of the "Whoosh!" I know is happening in the lives of the kids and families you all reach. I thought of the "Whoosh!" you all express in your ADHD, manic, obsessive-compulsive (and a few other DSM-IV diagnoses!) excitement over your preparations for VBS. Whoosh!!!! Thank you for that.

It was Bishop Ough. We loved him! (and that whole "Wesleyan DNA" thing!) Best wishes to your annual conference this week!

Whoosh!! I love it too! That's the feeling you get when a full-blown idea pops into your head, and you just know it's gonna work because it obviously didn't come from your own abilities.

Whoosh!! I love it! It's like the "wave" in a stadium! Movin' like the wind!
