Wow, hot here in North Carolina!!!

At WNCCUMC Annual Conference at Lake Junaluska NC, such a beautiful place. #beUMC

Jesus wept. Grief, sadness, and struggle are part of our story too. You are not alone. We are here to listen, love, and support. #mentalhealthawareness #BeUMC

#PopeFrancis He embodied humility, curiosity, faith + courage, + led in a season of challenge + secularization in the west. Yet the residual memory of Jesus came alive as he washed + kissed the feet of imprisoned women on Maundy Thursday. See his “Hope Does Not Disappoint”, from Romans 5 (2/2).

Who didn't see this coming?

Exactly!!

This administration will see!!

3.5 million+ gathered and said, in public, #handsoff. No property destroyed. No police officers killed. No swastikkkas. We love our country. It’s for *all* of us. Proud to be an American. Western North Carolina, survivors of Hurricane Helene, my people!

God wants us to see the awesome things that happen when we take time to wait on Him! Life can get really tough sometimes, but during those storms, we can actually grow stronger and become better people.

Giving blood, saving a life!!

For all you #Tarheel fans....New qb for UNC!! 😆

Yesterday was our annual Christmas Shopping Day and before we ventured out she said be ready to shop until you drop ..she was not kidding!! I am feeling it today.

Brothers and sisters...be still and trust in Him!! #beumc

Happy Monday, giving God the praises!! #beumc

Ignited by season-high performances from Dontrez Styles and Marcus Hill, NC State surged past Florida State in OT, 84-74, to open ACC play at 1-0. Charlie Gribble has the immediate takeaways:

FINAL (OT): NC State 84, Florida State 74 It took an extra five minutes, but NC State sealed the win over the Seminoles to kick off league play with a victory. Marcus Hill led the Pack with a season-high 23 points, while Dontrez Styles added a season-high 21 points of his own.

We are finally back home in WNC!!

Don't hate me, but I think #StarTrekVoyager was the best of all Star Treks!! What do you think @jerilryan.bsky.social

When we bring our fears to Jesus, we find peace and acceptance. We can trust Him to guide and protect us. As He said, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid” (John 14:27). #BeUMC #Jesus

It's going to be a blessed day!!

In Kentucky for a church mission....I thought NC was cold!!

THAT'S A #CANES WIN!!!

I know it is winter,but why has it been so cold? 😆

With #TheOrville being renewed, there is something to look forward to in 2025!!

Wind seems to never stop in WNC!!

“If all we have to offer the world is animosity and division, then, we have nothing to offer the world that the world hasn’t already mastered….I love being a part of a church that is a church of wide embrace". Thank you Paul Chilcoate for these wise words. #UMC #AuburnUMC #BeUMC #UMCOR

Align your heart with God!!

Seems like there have more #NFL injuries this year than most...what do you all think or is it just me??

Hearing Baker praise Bryce’s talent was great. But his affirmation that Canales in his corner has made the difference is even better news for Panthers fans. We not only have our QB, but also the right HC as well #KeepPounding

How did everyone's first Advent Sunday go? Our service went an hour and forty minutes and no one complained!! #beumc
