The major event last week was my trip to Long Island to check out the possibility of a new RUF at Stony Brook University and a new PCA church in the town. I drove out on Tuesday and toured the campus. I am told it is the premier school in the SUNY system. Most of… Continue reading May 6, 2018 — Long Island and Florida

Last week truly was miscellaneous. I can't think of anything better to call it. With my campus visits finished for the semester, my only travel was to Philadelphia on Wednesday to recruit for RUF at Westminster Seminary. A classmate of mine and former RUF minister, Rob Edwards, came from Virginia and preached an outstanding sermon… Continue reading April 29, 2018 — Misc.

I had a very pleasant time last week in Mexico City. The weather, for one thing, was beautiful. While it was cold and rainy in Bethlehem, I enjoyed sunshine and warmth. Most important was the opportunity to visit our friends and colleagues there. I landed on Monday after an early flight, and had time for… Continue reading April 22, 2018 — Mexico City

I'm in the air heading to Mexico! I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again. Last Monday Peter and I drove to Pittsburgh for the spring Mid-Atlantic staff meeting. Callie Miller picked a lunch spot which was bursting with personality, and Derek Bates took us to dinner at a restaurant in a huge old church building.… Continue reading April 16, 2018 — New England

OK, I'm back. That was the worst cold I've ever had. I took three naps on Monday, but began to recover rapidly after that. It was a good thing I wasn't planning to travel last week. As I was recovering, Kristy and I had an extended conversation about how to manage my database, I handled… Continue reading April 9, 2018 — Working at Home

I have a terrible cold. It snowed last night, but Benjamin is here for Easter, so he shoveled the sidewalks. I canceled today's engagements, but I hope to be out again tomorrow. Pray for recovery! Someone sideswiped me on the way home from Connecticut on Saturday, March 24. On Monday I was able to arrange… Continue reading April 2, 2018 — Maryland

First on the agenda for Thursday was to shovel out the cars. I cleared the sidewalks and shoveled out the cars before I went to bed Wednesday, but the snowplows came through in the night and piled snow up along the cars. We got over a foot of snow, so there was a lot to… Continue reading March 25, 2018 — Connecticut

I'm enjoying a snow day! I was supposed to be driving to Long Island to discuss starting RUF at Stony Brook University, but the threat of a foot of snow has everyone spooked. It's wonderful to have a day at home with Ruth, but she has the annoying habit of working all day. Last Monday… Continue reading March 21, 2018 — Ohio, WV, Millersville

I landed in Atlanta on time and arrived at my hotel by bedtime last Sunday night. I had a light schedule on Monday, which I much appreciated. It gave me the chance to unwind from the intense weekend prior (see my previous post). Tuesday was the meeting of RUF's national oversight committee, and the primary… Continue reading March 11, 2018 — Change at the Top

I almost broke the spell. Every time I visit our ministry at the University of Vermont in Burlington there is a big snowstorm. But this time, like the rest of the Northeast, the Vermont weather was mild. I had a splendid time visiting John and Megan Meinen, their intern, and the students in the RUF… Continue reading March 4 — Vermont and Student Training
