#GA222 - Day 1

6/18/2016

 So for the next week I'm attending our denomination's every-other-year gathering we call the General Assembly, where commissioners from Presbyterian churches all over the country come together to worship, pray, make decisions, vote, and engage in lots of other great Presby geekiness.  Some 800+ of us are hanging out in Portland, OR and it's a pretty cool thing.

I'm going to try and post a summary every day.  I'll probably wind up missing a day or two.  This is my first time at GA and apparently they keep commissioners pretty busy.  In addition to the large group gatherings, we're each assigned a specific committee (we are, after all, Presbyterians).  I'm on Bills & Overtures, which has elicited many sympathetic looks and condolences from friends.  Apparently my down-time this week won't be much.

But that's alright - you don't come to one of these things to just sit around.  So with that, here's a quick synopsis of Day One at #GA222 (and if you want more of a real-time thing, follow me on Twitter at @slindsley).
