Peace to you.
After taking a day of rest on Sunday, General Conference delegates resumed their second-week session.
They approved a plan to add two more bishops to where the church is growing. But a number of delegates expressed frustration that the number was below the five bishops initially sought by the 2016 General Conference. This decision is mainly because of financial reasons as the UMC can't afford to support more than two new bishops in the area.
The shootings occurred about seven miles east of the Charlotte Convention Center, where General Conference is underway. As news spread of deadly shootings of law enforcement officers in Charlotte, General Conference delegates paused to pray for victims and the community. For more information, you can read the entire story at this link.
Let us continue to pray for those who have been affected by yesterday's NC shooting and for our law enforcement officers.
Have a peaceful day. God bless.
In Christ,
Pastor Victor
