...but we haven't crossed the Rubicon. We bought plane tickets to our overseas ministry site, but departure is still two weeks away. Last week was intensely busy. In addition to our normal ministry activities, I researched and bought plane tickets and travel insurance (two kinds!), filled out forms, took a required online class, and worked… Continue reading January 23, 2022 — The Die is Cast!

Is it true that my last post was December 20 last year? We've spent the time since then engaged in hearty celebrations of the incarnation of our Lord while keeping up with routine home and ministry responsibilities. Christopher, Stephen, and Benjamin were here for a few days before Christmas. Stephen's fiancee, Annie, came with him.… Continue reading January 16, 2022 — Welcome 2022!

Last Monday we had a very encouraging… Continue reading December 12, 2021 — Countdown to Christmas!

Ruth and I just returned from Moravian University Christmas Vespers. It was a lovely and inspiring service. Thursday at dinner it dawned on us that neither one had gone anywhere that day.

We're wrapping up around here. I finished my December newsletter and it's in the mail. (You can read it here.) We had our last Bible study of the year and I finished preparations for my Sunday school class. I produced the last liturgy of the Pentecost Season and the first of Advent. Campus ministries are… Continue reading November 28, 2021 — Wrapping Up
