what blog? oh, that blog.

nearly forgot about this thing. welp. today's my day off, due to my client's vomiting (the poor little one). that means i actually have time for my little neglected bloggy. it also means i need to learn the hebrew alphabet. yikes! i've been learning an incredible amount over the last couple of months since i started the holy cross fellows program. and all that goes with that: building community in ambridge, the rule of life, spiritual formation, seminary classes, working a part-time job, church-planting. oh my. the influx of information is almost more than I can handle, but it's not just an information influx, I have the opportunity to apply what I'm learning immediately. One example is, I go to a church-planting workshop on saturday, and then work at a church-plant sunday and thursday. Another example is, I have a verbatim (a discussion on how to be a better communicator/people-lover) on wednesday about how to have better conversations in the workplace and get to apply it on friday. this is the best way to learn. the git-r-done approach or as they say about the holy cross fellows: launch as you train, not train before you launch.

this program is not all talk and i love it.

in other news, i've been confirmed in the anglican church. so i'd like to add a little prayer here for the mission of the church:

Everliving God, whose will it is that all should come to you through your Son Jesus Christ: Inspire our witness to him, that all may know the power of his forgiveness and the hope of his resurrection, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one god, now and for ever. Amen.
