Gearing Up for GC

Sunday, July 5th, 2009

VIEWPOINT – Hello West Texas!

Elizabeth and I are gearing up for a long stay (12 days) in Anaheim, California, attending General Convention. We are through the driven stage of trying to get every thing done and emerging from the panic stage moving into the resignation stage and not far from the “oh, what the hell stage!”

We will be staying at the Hilton Anaheim, just across the street from the Convention Center. We should arrive by noon tomorrow (Monday, July 6).

I have been assigned to be the lawyer to review the resolutions assigned to the Prayer Book, Liturgy and Music Committee (from whence will come resolutions regarding same sex blessings). I will also be spending time on the convention floor with the West Texas Deputation.

My commitment is to blog daily (?). We’ll see!

Let me know if you have issues of particular interest or if there are other things we can do for you out here. We are going to purchase a Get Crabby tee shirt for David Dean at the Millennium Development Goals table.

Keep us in your prayers!
