It was a joint service of the Dawson Charge. It was packed, everything went well, a very moving Eucharist celebrated, and there were lots of tears. It has been a blessing in these last few months to see some of the fruit of our ministry here. There are wonderful people here and I will miss them mightily. May God bless David Bell, their new pastor, who begins July 1.I am now pretty much finished in Dawson in terms of ministry. I'll be at Annual Conference this week, then we're on vacation for the rest of June (a working vacation...packing). I begin at Jefferson UMC July 1, preach my first sermon there July 2, and we'll move to the parsonage in Jefferson Hills July 6 (our anniversary).
