Internship Complete

Wow! This has been a busy, busy summer - filled with fun, work, and blessings. I've spent the last six weeks at Church of Our Savior, Camp Weed summer camp, and our Diocesan office - in addition to visiting as much as I could with family and friends. I had a chance to see several ministries in a variety of settings and really felt my own call to the priesthood being lifted up by many faithful people.
In every place I went, I could see Christ at work in the world, reconciling people to God and to each other, it was really beautiful and rewarding work.

Church of Our Savior was wonderful to me and I'm so grateful to Father John,Mother Ronnie, and their staff and volunteer leaders for their time. Last week was the Diocesan Office and it was excellent to meet the Bishop and his staff; it is a busy place and they really do a good job supporting the churches. My time at Camp Weed was also just great, especially the week I spent there with Marti and our kids (which made for a sweet homecoming for Brennan as he got back from China the day before we left for Camp).

We'll be back in Sewanee in a few days and we are looking forward to resuming our life there, but I will never forget the folks who shared their lives and their faith with me this summer.
