response to my rut
last night we went to our pastor's house
they had invited over 3 weeks ago
and we finally had found the time when
we both could do an evening
first of all: i've never met a more personal able
pastor's wife
she's so different from the stereotype
and from what i was expecting
they're both from southern california
he went to apu and she went to pepperdine
cool
i think they're also in their early thirties
i can't really tell, but i can in a way
they have a 2 month old, officially 2 months
old just yesterday
they adopted him and are enjoying every bit of him
they are so easy to talk to...
i still can't get over it
i wonder what will happen with my hubby
applies to the job in maryland
he is more than qualified
i only hope that he will be happy there
it will be hard to leave these people
and the church they are restoring
and refreshing and renewing
she confided in me about
a lot of the church history last night
it has been through a lot
too much, i think
but God has already brought more/ new people
to the congregation
and good people (like the pastor and his family)
it will be hard to leave
but if we need to then we will
and God will meet us in maryland
and provide for us
as He always has
i talked with k about my thoughts with music
the same ones i posted about yesterday
she listened
later on she asked if i would consider singing
for a special music segment of the service
i would consider it if i had enough time to prep, sure
it would be cool if hubby played as well
there's a good portion of German folk
in the congregation--i love that--
lucy, kathleen[?]...well, that's it, actually
oh. and k spent a year in heidelberg (2 semesters)
she loved it, was glad to be back
(went with the pepperdine program)
it was nice to just talk with people
on a familiar, or somewhat familiar level
really
really nice
they've been here for about a year
i wonder what is next for us
if there is a next
or if we will need to move later
(after a 3 or 5 year stint here)
he's in a good unit
i'm thankful for it
it just seems normal-ish
and has much less drama than heidelberg did/ does
smaller...less prestige, but
i think that it keeps people humble
and cool
looking forward to what is down the road
and in front of us now
my domestic house-keeping skills are lagging.
need to work on that. balls.
