The news from Mt. Wesley






The 2010 Bishop's Convocation at Mt. Wesley (near Kerrville) is over, and it was a terrific experience for Pastor Charles and Belinda. We got to meet the bishop of Southwest Texas Conference of the United Methodist Church (UMC), Bishop Jim Dorff. We heard two dynamic messages from the bishop of the Oklahoma Conference of the UMC, Bishop Robert Hayes.
We also were surprised to meet a former colleague of Pastor Charles, the Rev. William Brown, who now lives near Boerne. The last time we saw the Rev. Brown, he was Chaplain Brown. He had been deployed to Iwakuni, Japan, where Pastor Charles was assigned as Navy chaplain.
Mt. Wesley is a wonderful facility, and our conference is blessed to have this place available for use!
