Weird Day.
Talk about a disjointed day…. I got home today from work in the city and read on the GA website that the GA voted 380-325-3 in favor of deleting G-6.0106b from our Book of Order (psst…. for those of you who aren’t presbyterian, thats the part that means that if you are gay and not…

Summer in Philly
Whew! So a week’s worth of work has been I-N-T-E-N-S-E… Just for my own sake, to document all that has happened thus far: I unofficially started here last Saturday, when I dropped by to check out the church and ended up meeting Nick and Peter, two of the other Youth Initiative interns at BSM for…
