- reconnecting with old friends, spending quality time with some of the people whose company I enjoy most, and meeting new people
- celebrating some of the transformative ministries that make New England such a cool place to serve
- growing through learning experiences, like this year's inspiring teaching by Adam Hamilton
- enjoying worship I don't have to lead
- checking out all the titles at Cokesbury... and resisting the temptation to overspend
- being part of the celebration as new pastors are commissioned and ordained
- getting my fuel tank refilled and remembering why I do what I do
- sleeping in a really uncomfortable dorm room bed and eating overcooked cafeteria food (not so much)
- seeing what crazy cross-dressing thing John Blackadar is going to do next
How about you?
