The Ranch

The Presbyterian church synod brought together some of the Small Membership Church Pastors forr a gathering. We had folks from all over. Mostly Presbyterians some Methodists. It was a good time.
I enjoyed the people and some we'd met the year before and it was good to catch up with them. The program was well done, bringing insights, dynamics, evocative, and healing. We all learned a good deal.
We also enjoyed being at Mo-Ranch a retreat center in the TX Hill Country. Near Hunt TX. It is a beautiful part of the world where the rivers run over rock enough to make the water clear and cool. We got to sit for a while in the rapids and to sit later on the bridge and dangle our legs iin the water..
We also got to walk the labrynth. More on that another time. But a reflective time to be sure....

Deep Breath
So what do you feel? How are you feeling about the time. We are thinking those who are being hit by the hurricane and those who are in awe of it's coming. So many in the Gulf of Mexico this year.
We are thiinking about the people who were in the path of the earthquake in Pakistan and N India etc. My goodness. long term trouble there.
And for the joys that keep us going ...we are most grateful.

Deep Breath
We expect a cold front to come tonight and be highs in the 60's tomorrow. Fall...to be sure

God abides
