Well...my candidate, Carl Mazza didn't win. However, as happy as I would have been to see Carl win, I am very excited about the person who did win. Rev. Bruce Reyes-Chow, pastor Mission Bay Presbyterian Church, is engaging, charismatic, and well-spoken. I think he will be wonderful moderator, both this week and th two years ahead.
Tomorrow is an exciting day! On the Sunday before the G.A. begins the business set before them, everyone attending the GA - no matter the capacity- and often many people from the city in which the assembly is held gathers for an AMAZING worship service. The outgoing moderator preaches and worship includes the Lord's Supper. What makes the service so amazing is that there are often 5000 Presbyterians - of all ilk and theology all worshiping together. Somehow, it puts all of our differences in a different light!
Talk with again tomorrow. Hopefully, I will have remembered how to put some pictures on hre for you. But - hey - a light-rail and a blog - that's pretty good for an old girl, don't you think?!

We are so happy that you have not become lost and ended up in Cananda or Tijuana! We had a great b-day party last night with Marge and Eddie. Dusty, Dave and Eddie behaved themselves more or less. Enjoy GA, and California and we will see you next weekend.

Great to know all is well at GA. We had a fabulous gathering to celebrate FIVE June birthdays. Lots of good laughter and conversation, BUT WE MISSED YOU! I'll be looking forward to getting together to hear about GA ... I'm not above stealing ALL GOOD IDEAS!!
