Where do I have to go hear her sermon and see her?
If you do not live within close proximity she will tell you to find a church in your area and be involved there.
Orders are orders, by the way. Maybe only veterans and active military understand that concept.
My pastor is an attractive woman that looks half her age and next to the Catholic Church has the largest congregation and church attendance in our community. She is the mother of five and a grandmother of three. Some of us think our increase in attendance is because she has probably the finest sermon and looks like a total 10 in a dress. She spends about 50 hours a week doing the work of the church, volunteers at the food pantry and reads to the children at the library on Saturday's. For all of this they pay her well.
She drives a Mustang GT, has purple hair.
She is probably packing a pistol anytime you see her, even while preaching. She once said in an exaggerated way "I'll be damned if anyone is coming into my church and shooting the place up." We all got the humor. And since most of the people in church have guns they are okay with it. The church is an open carry/conceal carry friendly church.
When you visit her house she is likely to offer you some Mike's hard lemonade and home made apple pie. If her husband is home you may find yourself sitting on the front porch drinking some Tennessee Honey or Apple Pie moonshine. She is down to earth and never acts like she is too good or "holier than thou."
When I introduced myself to the Catholic Priest and mentioned her, he said without hesitation, "She is a lover of God."
When I think of all of this I truly feel blessed to have her as my pastor, but even more so, to have her as my wife.
What is your pastor like?

If possible, put the lens right up against the fence, and use a wide aperture. A collapsed rubber hood will protect the lens.
I press the plastic lens hood against the fence and it works well.
I would never use one of those, it just seems awkward. A good monopod would be better.
You are also doing way too much work. Set your exposure for an interior wall. Take the picture. In Lightroom adjust for exposure and color balance, and then lower the highlights to get the window to look right. Done.
I had the tamron 70-200 and its pretty light compared to my canon 70-200

Most of the right wingers here don't have a clue what the Secret Service does beside protect Donald Bumpkin Trump.
Right now he's got "acting" cabinet members all over the government. This is a great way to work around that pesky approval process.
Yet the Trump supporters stand their ground and support this despot.
No need to ask the question, why did the German citizens allow Hitler to rise to power. The answer is all around us.
I suppose you are the resident expert on the secret service
Guess I'm taking this hotel chain off my travel list...
And I suppose you think Obama's issues were okay? Dont bother asking..."what issues?" unless you are dumber and a bigger dumb ass than you say Trump is.
