I attended Annual Conference again this year. This time I was less of a spectator. I was there to represent Higher Education and Campus Ministry. I did not realize how busy the campus ministers were at conference. Most of their time was spent training the Students in Mission (SIM) workers. While SIM training was taking place, I got to babysit the HECM table and bond with the representatives of the United Methodist colleges and universities in SC. I also ate a lot of cookies. That was the more tame attraction for HECM at conference. Presidents and Vice-Presidents of schools would come out and answer questions while giving out cookies. The other attraction was a t-shirt giveaway. Thanks to Wofford, we even had a t-shirt launcher for a day. I even have pictures of Bishop Taylor launching t-shirts into the crowd! I think a whole lot of people left conference knowing a lot more about HECM this year.
