new church development
In my attempt to be like Margery Kempe, I left out the most stunning thing about the assembly thus far: our new Moderator is 39 years old. Christ is the head of the church, but the person chosen to be the face of our denomination for the next two years is a thirtysomething descendant of Filipino and Chinese immigrants who runs a new church development in the Bay area. Love it.
Coming to General Assembly always makes me proud to be a Presbyterian.
