More discussion less process please....

There has been a lot of process about parliamentary procedures and very little discussion about the actual issues. There seems to be a quite a bit of persons that are more concerned about the process than what we are actually trying to discuss.
They adopted a new mission statement, which actually was the old one that had an addition to the end of it. "Making Disciples of Jesus Christ for the Transformation of the World". I love it!
The President of the Democratic Republic of Liberia came to speak today. Security was tight. She is a United Methodist and from what I understood spoke very eloquently. I was not able to heat her because I had to go to our General Conference Youth and Young Adult Gathering (see below) that the Central Texas and North Texas Conference was sponsoring.
The gathering for youth and young adults for general conference was a great opportunity for those attending the conference and for our local churches to come enjoy fellowship, food and local praise bands for music. The FUMC Mansfield student praise band and White's Chapel UMC student praise band led some very inspiring and fun music.
Our own Central Texas delegation seems to be tired but their spirits are high. Our reserves have been faithful in staying the majority of the time and providing relief when they need it. I love seeing all of the clergy and lay volunteers that come to support the conference and our delegation. Tomorrow is new day with new experiences. Stay tuned...
