The mantra for our table in the Orders and Vocations Committee was "Get in the boat. Go across the lake. There will be a storm. You will not die." Thanks to GA Stated Clerk, Grady Parsons, for that.
I can report that it took two grueling days, but all of the above took place. Now, the recommendations go to the full Assembly over the next three days for more deliberation and action. Tonight- exhausted friskiness will prevail.
"Get in the boat. Go across the lake. There will be a storm. You will not die." Pithy. I love it!
ReplyDeleteJust clicked onto your blog - cool! Sounds like perhaps (or hopefully!!) a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
ReplyDeleteYes, John, its a pretty amazing experience and being a voting Elder Commissioner might well be a one time opportunity. Quite a big deal.
