Starting to think BlueSky is the correct app to be on. Starting to think we may have to begin using code. BEYOND starting to think how this whole thing is WAY overdone. I’m COMPLETELY AGAINST political violence of ANY sort. But to treat this like this?!?

It would be wonderful to have a reliable news organization such as @reuters.com or @apnews.com or @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social maybe even @meidastouch.com or maybe @aaronparnas.bsky.social verify this? TikTok is a heavy left/heavy right platform right now and news becomes outrageous news really quick.
I hope this is true.
If true, this is amazing and it's coming to a head. The military are refusing direct orders

@npr.org @pbs.org @pbsnews.org Tell the people what you need from us. How can we help? Even if we can’t give financially? Like I know there’s a local station here that uses volunteers… What can we do?

Tonight’s #UCCSynod 35’s closing worship. If you watch nothing else - watch the sermon!!! The dramatic scripture telling begins at about 31:20. This is WORTH IT!!!

Am I the only neurodivergent screaming “AMEN!!!” inside my head during this sermon? #UCCSYNOD

Holy. Shit. Rev. Antony Coleman is KILLING IT with this sermon. This metaphor is absolutely dead on. WOW!!! Preach - PREACH!!!

Interesting gathering music (not a part of the worship) playing. Gotta find the playlist. #uccsynod

Delegates see cool places to go to in Cleveland and hope they get a chance to go somewhere cool like that in between maybe the caucus and plenary, or that hour break after workshops before plenary. Possibly between plenaries. Or - before worship…. After plenary. #uccsynod

All humans deserve human rights.
Louder for those in the back…

ALL.
HUMANS.
DESERVE.
HUMAN.
RIGHTS.

I wonder… where was the resolution to condemn Hamas? We definitely should have had one. It’s difficult to combine condemning Hamas’ evil actions into a resolution about condemning Palestinian genocide.

It was not about politics. It was about the local church being the head of the church. #uccsynod

Now that we went through that - what if we listen? There was obvious frustration. Be it miscommunication, lack of resources or whatever… there is a need for resources. Can we help?

Yup. 64 percent are “STAR”. But those are SMALL churches. They don’t have the people. The resources. #uccsynod

What does it say that we need to continuously propose resolutions that call for human rights and humane treatment of HUMANS?!?

When will we actually listen to God?

Like seriously… Can someone get the moderator a computer with website open and a phone or tablet with the app? SO THEY CAN SEE WHEN WE ARE READY????

Also - you can not “refresh your page” on the app. That would involve closing the app and re-opening it. #uccsynod

LGBTQIA is not the point of the OWL resolution. Hopefully people remember that. #UCCSynod

If the UCC thinks the EKD is a VIP and wants partnership ASAP, I believe we should highlight it on AM, FM, and TV. Perhaps the GM/CEO could ask the new AGM to present education to local congregations about this and also the IEUPR. But we should pass this while at GS in KC. #UCCSynod

UCC Synod having a hot closed caption moment… We didn’t hear anything, but apparently the closed captioning did. 😂😂😂
