CROP Walk

It was a beautiful, if blustery, day for a walk in the park. After lunch in the Fellowship Hall, a dozen Pilgrims gathered in the Upper Muny Parking Lot for a walk to end hunger supporting Church World Service and Operation Food Search.

Several of us Pilgrims made it to FaithWorks 2008 at Lake of the Ozarks this weekend. The Keynotes were by Dr. Tex Sample who told us rich stories to inspire us around the theme of "Creating and Celebrating Healthy and Vital Churches."

During the Mission Fest on Saturday morning Kim and Kimberly chatted and Cindy staffed the table for Gateway ONA. I have bee working with the Strategic Planning Working Group for the conference and participants at FaithWorks were invited to express preferences for the various Priority Areas by placing stickers on posters on the wall at Mission Fest.

The weekend closed with worship at which Jeffery Whitman, our Conference Minister preached and presided at communion.
