Conferences and More.

The European General Conference Delegate Consultation in Kiev came off well with surprisingly few unexpected events. One delegate was delayed at the airport 9 hours and there were a few illnesses, but most of the delegates from 14 countries and 5 bishops came in on time, without delays, lost luggage, hale and hearty. We were also worried if the meeting would fit into the main room of our St. Luke's street children center, but with some creative arrangements of the tables, they all squeezed in. The delegate conference was the first test of our new center to host an event, but with work, organization and help from the kids, I think we passed.


The first night was at the conference room of the Kozatsky hotel where the delegates stayed, with the praise team from Istochnik UMC showing off Ukrainian talent.

Tight fit, but cozy fellowship for the plenary session at St. Luke's Children Center.


The kids helped to keep the kitchen on time serving lunch.

A Happy Norwegian Superintendent!
