Annual Conference
Filed under: Ron's Reflections
Posted by: site admin @ 8:45 am

This past week I attended the Illinois Great River Conference’s Annual Conference.  Once a year all the United Methodist Church south of interstate 80 gather together to conduct their business.  At this Conference ordination of ministers takes place.  It is a time to honor those minister who are retiring and of course, a time to set the yearly budget which includes various mission outreaches that touch lives all over the world.  The Conference is a time for celebrating all that God has done in our various churches and a time to seek God’s will for the future.  As I participated in this activity I realized again that I need times of reflections in my own life.  I constantly need to ask myself the question, ‘am I allowing God to run my life?’.  The answer to that question will determine if I am living with a purpose or not.
