A good week

This week of residence has been gift. The teaching has been good. The numerous conversations between faculty and students have been delightful. The worship has had depth. The moments for laughter have been many. I feel like I have got to know some amazing students.

Today the intensive finishes. The first year is over for these students. They will head back to different parts of America. There is the gift of a pause in the summer. And then it will all start up again in August.

A big thank you to everyone. For the people to delivered meals, to the worship leaders, to the countless individuals who made this week possible - a bit thank you.
