During the time around the beginning of the pandemic I dropped blogging. It seemed like video was more the way to go with the need to have a personal touch through online worship, studies, and opportunities. 

But there are times I'd just like to get things down in print and reflect. So I am going to try out this new blogging system that is now a part of the Hey.com email service which I use as, and really appreciate, as my email provider. 

As in my previous blog, I'm sure I'll do a lot of sharing about mission and ministry in the United Methodist Church as well as activities at First UMC in Indianola, Iowa.

Blessings,
