You know there's something wrong when it's not even 10 o'clock in the morning and you can SEE the air...yicky humidity. I like the fall, when there are cool breezes and pretty trees. This humidity and heat is fine if you have air conditioning, a swimming pool, or absolutely nothing to do. It stinks for animals and for the elderly and for the young ( Read more... )

Hi folks. Last week was awesome. I drove up to Ocean City, NJ to visit one of my students who is taking part in the Ocean City Beach Project. She's having a blast, and I really think she is benefitting from this summer. WoOt! It was really good for me to go up and chat with her and care for her and care for my other friends who are staffing ( Read more... )

Working alone on a branch campus of a public college can be somewhat burdensome. Let me elaborate. I now have an on-campus supervisor. Which is not necessarily a bad thing, however, it already seems to be making things difficult. I will only be included in one day of OL training and Orientation, as opposed to being involved in everything like ( Read more... )

Processing, Processing...what fun times! It's been an amazing few months...I feel like all I get done is think through the experiences I've had and how I can learn and grow from them. Please bear with me in this post...it's the first place I've thought through these things, so the ideas may be a bit jumbled ( Read more... )

Whew! It's been a long 2 months! I can't believe this time next week, it'll be July! I've been back in the Mont Alto area for a week...dealing with the torrential downpours and flooding. I have bene house-and-dog sitting for a friend this week, and it's been an adventure. But more on that later. I'm BAA-ACK! And it's good to be back. I missed the ( Read more... )

Hi friends! Just wanted to blog quickly before I head out and about...I moved all of my stuff into the new place I'm renting yesterday...and now I'm headed back to the other side of PA. My internet access for the next few weeks is going to be sketchy....so I may or may not be posting frequently. Here's a little rundown of what I'll be doing so ( Read more... )

Hey friends. So, I've been thinking...I think I need to discontinue use of Xanga and livejournal. I don't really have time to keep them up well, and I really enjoy posting on blogspot. I have facebook, and I was also considering getting myspace. Maybe I'm too wrapped up in this whole internet thing. I won't even have time to do too much of it ( Read more... )

Wow. The semester is over. I have survived my first year of ministry. All of my students will be gone from campus tomorrow. I don't know what I'm going to do with myself! It's really really odd to be on this side of life. I know that some of them will be coming back in the fall, but others I might never see again! Imagine that! This summer ( Read more... )

So, yesterday was my day off. It was most definitely needed. Tuesday was a LONG day, but in the end it turned out okay. I still don't know where I'm living in the fall...so if you could be in prayer about that and about my support raising...it would be great and much appreciated. But I digress ( Read more... )

Sorry for long time no post! Enjoy ( Read more... )
