If I had the forethought to bring a computer on vacation, I would have sent you one of these "love letters" from Virginia. God had other plans, I guess.
I look forward to June being a good time for us to recenter ourselves smack dab in the middle of the summer. After this Sunday, Trinity Sunday, we will enter into that growing and evolving period of Ordinary Time. The space between now and World Communion Sunday is called Ordinary Time because it numbers the days and weeks (ordinal->"counting"). To me, Ordinary Time is not to be wasted. It's a gift from God for us to take a deep breath and step back a moment, and assess where He has been there for us and where He's taking us next.
Where is God taking US this week?
- Our Exercise, Eat and Pray group is meeting this Wednesday at 9:00AM
- Yoga is POSTPONED until next week
- Tomorrow, May 23rd the students from K.U. Alternate Breaks spend the night in Fellowship Hall. They take off pretty early in the morning for home.
- Sunday, your pastor is "back in the saddle again" - the pulpit
- I'm in Albuquerque as of this morning thru Saturday, for Eric's surgery and a couple extra days' recovery time.

Much love.
