Kicked off #iaumc with a game night with other clergy and laity - my son’s favorite game is apparently brownies 😂

No one needs to hear my early sermons either! Recently reread my sermon from my first Sunday under appointment and it was awful! Grateful for a chance to grow. #ShareChurchLI

In many ways we have ceased to be fishers of men, and become keepers of fishbowls.- #sharechurchLI Nona Jones is bringing the truth today.

Only 648 UM ordained Elders under 35 right now. Guess this 33-year-old is in a surprisingly small crowd! #ShareChurchLI

@GradyGreen4ever Gotta get dem candies 🤑

Just offering treats to my Ivysaur at #ShareChurchLI - I know there are at least 3 other #PokemonGO players here this week from their activity! 👀

I love everyone holding up their phone and squinting at the screen while they scan the QR code 🤓 #ShareChurchLI

A takeaway from @RevAdamHamilton’s presentation at #ShareChurchLI on staying UMC - COR was launched because of connectional giving and he feels a commitment to give back to the denomination what they can.

@sharechurchrez SPIN! Pizza 😋 It was a recommendation from a @ChurchoftheRez staff member and we loved it!

15 minutes of sacred music for our weary souls 😭 #thanksbetogod #ShareChurchLI

Powerful story this afternoon at #ShareChurchLI - nurses throwing a birthday party for a patient “not bc it was in a handbook” but because of the culture. Can we set that compassionate culture at our churches?

[Heather Streicher Dorr @RevHeatherDorr]

Make that 4!

Love the Lego analogy from @JenniCatron - we can build our churches like toddlers build a tower - so excited for growth that we don’t pay attention to the foundation #ShareChurchLI

[Heather Streicher Dorr @RevHeatherDorr]

I appreciate the chance to gather with other young clergy for encouragement and Q&A with Pastor Adam over lunch. Fed the body and the soul. #ShareChurchLI

[Heather Streicher Dorr @RevHeatherDorr]

Great breakout session with @JenniCatron learning about leadership with the heart ❤️, soul 🙌🏻, mind 🧠, and strength 🦾 #ShareChurchLI

[Heather Streicher Dorr @RevHeatherDorr]

I appreciate Bolsinger’s encouragement that clergy do face many technical challenges that we have been trained for. We know how to do so many things our people need. #ShareChurchLI

Tod Bolsinger asking us what was revealed during the pandemic. What was going on in your church that wasn’t seen until then? #ShareChurchLI
