Also now you can delete Bluesky because we won’t be back for 3 years and we’re the only reason you downloaded it anyways #uccsynod

And with that, we make our way back up in to the air ducts of the Kansas City Convention Center, snuggled up with our prayer shawls and leftover huckleberry taffy and the flavored dental dams that you freaks didn’t use, to sleep the sleep of the just. #uccsynod

There is so much we will miss about Kansas City, like the discarded nipple pasties on the walk up 13th ave #uccsynod

If there are any chaplains who can help us process our grief over @rushanshekar.bsky.social no longer being the moderator of #uccsynod please meet us at the fourth trashcan from the back 😭😭😭😭

YESSSSS PARLIAMENTARIANS @revterrywilliams.bsky.social #uccsynod

The return of the sparkle blazer reminds us of the sparkle of the night sky. The time when the trash cans go out 🌙 🦝🦝🦝 #uccsynod

[not a joke] Deeply grateful for all the General Synod Program and Planning Committee, and the Local Arrangements Committee, and everyone else who makes it possible for us to make bad jokes like it is our job for a few days Couldn’t do it without you #uccsynod

Serve with the help of God and KEEEEEVINNNNNNN PEEEEETTTTTEERRRRSOONNMM who helps us all #uccsynod

“Not to think of yourself more highly than you ought,” unless you’ve visited the shrooms table, in which case, you have no choice but to think of yourself highly #uccsynod

@rushans.bsky.social we’re not ready to see you go! #uccsynod

Soon, we might see his Cleve-age. #UCCSynod #OurWholeLives

LFG #uccsynod

Guy who loves Cleveland stripping off a range of favorite Cleveland t shirts, preparing to invite everyone on stage into a Cleveland-themed strip tease #uccsynod

Coastal elite delegates currently googling “where is Cleveland” #uccsynod

Judging by the sighs throughout the conference hall, people are *disappointed* to hear that Synod 36 is in Cleveland, but people from Heartland conference still dance to “Cleveland rocks” #uccsynpd

Canada is promising to come alongside the UCC. We’re hoping they bring salmon for us #uccsynod

American UCCers again shocked to see what sort of hope and joy is possible when you live in Canada #uccsynod

The Local Arrangements Committee made us a VERY nice burrow in the fourth trashcan from the back—incredibly well-appointed, comfortable, and full of bbq trash We are so grateful #uccsynod

With David Anderson retired, Kevin Peterson now assumes the mantle of king of everything, and we are his humble subjects #uccsynod

KEVINNNNN PETTYTEERTSONNNMMM #uccsynod

Holy Spirit relieved to return to speaking to and through her people without the conjunctions “whereas” and “therefore” #uccsynod

Government agencies, decimated by the current fascist hellscape, stand ready to listen to and act on our resolutions #uccsynod

“The light of hope is flickering”? Are you talking about the candle that CONTINUES to be unlit? #uccsynod

“We got a bit into the weeds” We love the weeds The weeds are where the cicadas hide The weeds are where the big tent full of snacks is #uccsynod

#uccsynod Fashion blog: this lime green blazer over a yellow shirt is a CHOICE that we LOVE

If you want to see more raccoons in this greener earth, support this resolution #uccsynod

@taylorramage.bsky.social this committee block is your last chance to come to the mic as your final form queer superhero self #uccsynod

Third speaker today does not know what time of day it is, continues to speak our mind #uccsynod

Rob Edwards tells us to pray with our feet, but we pray with our cute lil dexterous paws #uccsynod

Committee chairs working overtime to find nice phrasing for “people argued forever about every word and piece of punctuation” #uccsynod

If they’re turning halos into demon tails, can we instead turn halos into other things, like, maybe, donuts? That are dropped on the floor for us? #uccsynod

Our two heroes: roving camera guy and girl who really loves dogs #uccsynod

Realizing that there hasn’t been enough singing during this Synod, Patrick Duggan of the church building and loan fund makes this presentation a musical #uccsynod

The NGLI and 20/30 lunch demonstrates that this demographic are leaders in knowing sighs, hmms, murmuring laughter, and not keeping their passwords written down next to their computers.

Pastor at NGLI lunch prays for an end to petty squabbles; pastors sigh in understanding, say amen, and immediately re-commence petty squabbles.

We’re not sure we understand how this leaf blower will fit in to closing worship, but we’re NERVOUS about the LOUD NOISES

#uccsynod fashion blog: Delegate in Cookie Monster t shirt saying “keep calm and eat cookies” speaks our mind Related, please drop cookies on the floor for us

Synod erupts in anger as they realize there is no coffee setup in the exhibit hall #uccsynod

What is your sense? Our senses are best attuned to dawn and dusk. #uccsynod

I’m a longtime traveler here below, I’m a longtime traveling away from home

#uccsynod fashion blog Nice hat! We love the silver buckle.

We try to negotiate over cheese by causing a diversion, grabbing the cheese, and scampering up a tree. #uccsynod

Delegate at mic uses 15 seconds to think about what to say #uccsynod

@liddybarlow.bsky.social !! That’s our girl!

Always wise to use 50% of time to establishing bona fides. #uccsynod
