- A wedding of two delightful young people on Saturday night. This will be a Big Production wedding, but nestled in the middle of all that fuss are a man and a woman who deeply love each other, understand what a blessing and a challenge marriage can be, and want God to bless them.
- Remarkably, the wedding consultant is a delight. A little obsessive-compulsive, which is probably a job requirement, but she clearly understands what is her job and what is mine, and asks the right questions. Would that all wedding consultants were like this....
- Three baptisms for Sunday. What better way to celebrate Father's Day than to ask for our Heavenly Father's blessing on these three beautiful little ones?
- Time to take PH out for a Father's Day brunch...there is no thing as "only a step-father." He helped form my children into the wonderful adults they have become, and helped me keep perspective when I needed it, especially during their teen years. He loves them as if they were of his own body. We are blessed.
- Next week, a week of continuing ed courtesy of the Lilly Foundation. I'll be up at VTS for the final session of the Second Three Years Program. It is a nice punctuation mark at the end of this part of my formation. In the fall, I will commence a DMin program at Columbia Theological Seminary, where I am really looking forward to working with Pamela Cooper-White. I'm looking forward to seeing a bunch of my seminary peeps, and I'm also looking forward to making new friends with my DMin cohort.
