I've done it!

After months of planning to get my blog up and running I have finally accomplished that task! 

The reason I want to have a blog is so others can join me as I travel to the World Methodist Conference in Durban, South Africa later this summer.  This is a time of connecting with fellow United Methodists from around the world in the name of Jesus Christ.  The conference includes many worship opportunities as well as workshops, fellowship time and time to get to know some of the mission projects in the Durban area.  It should be a colorful and wonderful event.

I invite you to join me as I see some of the sights of South Africa prior to the conference and then during the conference itself.  I leave the U.S. on July 23rd.

I think making these worldwide connections are imperative in our global society and for the continuation of the faith journey.  What do you think?  Do you think it will make any difference in the lives of those attending and beyond or just a waste of time?

Blessings.
