I started out the week visiting Terra Ceia UMC for their 8:30am worship service. This is an island church right at the east end of the Sunshine Skyway bridge.
And then on Monday I drove down to Miami. I am staying downtown thanks to the generosity of the First UMC of Miami. They sold their property on Biscayne Boulevard to a developer and are currently getting ministry space built out in a 49 story hotel/condo building. I get to stay in one of the 1 bedroom suites this week as a respite and I am using the time to work on my dissertation. Daryl will join me on Wednesday afternoon for a couple of days to celebrate our 24th anniversary (which is next Monday). Their pastor Audrey Warren and Daryl were commissioned in the same year. I'm on the 28th floor and I can see the Florida Marlins stadium from the balcony and from the gym I can see the Miami Heat stadium a block away.
