All done!

With one of my blog followers checking in with me a few days ago, I realize I gave up trying to post the latest news via my blog since I can no longer load photos....and, boy, are there a lot of important photos to load!  Primarily...my graduation last Friday, May 9th!  Apparently at middle-age, I have become a cover girl...check it out here.... http://theology.sewanee.edu/news/graduation-day-at-the-school-of-theology.  Yes...that is the look of euphoria!  Three long and hard years of studying, fighting my way to school through snow and ice (okay, okay, it was a rough winter this year!), and not being able to eat Texas BBQ....and it is all over!  Packing has begun and the van will pull out of Sewanee, Tennessee on either May 28 or 29.


The next big event is my initial ordination to the diaconate on June 21st at 10:00 a.m. at Christ Church Cathedral in Houston... http://www.christchurchcathedral.org/... those of you in the Houston area, come on out!


Then...on July 1st, I start my ordained ministry at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Waco, Texas!  http://www.stpaulswaco.org/ .... so excited to become a part of this vibrant parish on the banks of the Brazos River just a few blocks away from the Dr. Pepper Museum (and you know what a Pepper I am!).


Whew, lots of change going on!!  I suspect that Mid-life Metanoia will continue to unfold....at least for me!   Don't know that the blog will continue since 1) it seems to not be working too well if I can't post photos (where's Christy when you need her??) and 2) I never was particularly regular about my posts (but aren't I going to have a lot of free time now??).  Thanks for reading along....let me know if you have enjoyed the ride as much as I have!
