I got to know a number of pastor's wives, women in ministry and missionaries in the district at the Women's Ministry get away the last weekend of February. It was neat to hear the speaker, Tonilee Cullison who was at my church in Waukesha with her husband Kurt as youth pastors. I taught her daughter when she was 3 years old. This week, met the pastors of the Southwest section of the Michigan District for the sectional meeting. Glad to have several invitations from there to come meet and talk to churches. It was meaningful to be commissioned as a licensed minister at the service also. The newly commissioned ministers received a towel to remind us of servant leadership like Christ showed in washing the disciples feet. (and a Bible).
Last weekend I had the privilege of driving our missionary speaker for the Blue Roof A/G missions convention to and from the airport and church. It was so exciting because the speaker was Huldah Buntain. I grew up hearing the stories about Mark and Huldah in Calcutta India. She has been serving there almost 60 years! Such a woman of grace and encouragement.
