Well, it's a new year, 2009, and this is the year I graduate from seminary. It's hard to believe the time has flown by so quickly, but as you can probably imagine from the scarcity of blog posts, I've been too busy to notice!
The title of this post is "hurry up and wait" and that's exactly what it feels like to stand in the middle between having submitted the paperwork for assignment as a pastor in the ELCA and actually receiving the news of where we will be assigned. Lorice and I are in constant conversation about our future, it seems, even as we box up stuff and take these boxes to our storage unit. There is a deep wonderment that pervades life when your future is to be determined by the gathering of others around a table in another city. And so we ask for your prayers for these people who make such decisions and for us as we wait.
peace be with you,
Paul :o)
