I’ve been looking ahead at my calendar for September, and it’s going to be a busy one. It’s getting to be that time again in the United Methodist Church – charge conference time. Meetings, meetings, meetings. Getting things ready for charge conference takes several weeks. Figuring out leadership, setting goals, getting the paperwork done… ugh… paperwork.
On top of that, I have a mandatory training that needs to be done. I’ll be taking a couple of days to stay in Kokomo (no, not where you want to go to get away from it all – a different Kokomo) for these training events. I’m also going to start meeting regularly with a couple of new groups, as well as a couple of groups with whom I’ve been meeting for a while.
It’s going to be a crazy season in ministry, that is for sure.
