My Ordination

After ten years, from beginning candidacy to now, my ordination was last Wednesday evening. (As you might guess from my countdown clock to the right.)

You might imagine that I was awestruck...that would be the understatement of all time. If you want to hear more about it, you can listen to my sermon from May 31, 2009.

I cannot describe how wonderful and meaningful this experience was. I only hope that there is something in your life that allows you to feel the presence of God the way I did that evening.

May you be blessed in many ways.

Sonja, You have beautifully captured this experience. (Great picture too!) I can recognize in my experience last year much of what you have spoken of. It was a humbling and "awe"some experience. I thank God for gifting the UMC with your ministry and leadership.

Blessings,

Kevin

Sonja,
It is an awesome moment and one that you will come back to again and again. Bless you, dear little sister. Kay
