The Rev. Thomas Ondra: Wow. Retired from the FUMC … What a tenure and Legacy. Frankly I am surprised at your UMC tradition, rather than RCA. We left UMC in 2013 [both us had generations of background and I served infinite leadership roles in 2 UMC’s. We are currently RCA, Celebrate Community Church – ‘unstructured theology’ with a CUI grad, Pastor Andrew Schmidt. We are looking forward to Ames, IA church membership, when ‘normal returns. … What are your plans? Tell me about Life for you Two!
