July 4th at Resurrection

Dear Friends,

Thank you so much for the check of $2,900 today from my home church, Resurrection. I've also received direct contributions of $300. And I received $535 from St. John's on Pentecost plus a wonderful reference book, The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church. I deeply appreciate your support and your blessings.

I am in a panic about leaving, in that difficult space between knowing that I'm doing what I should be doing, and wishing that I didn't have to go. I think I am mourning the changes in my life even though I believe in my call. How difficult to mourn changes that I want.

I'm leaving early on Thursday morning, July 8th. My wonder dog, Ladybug, is going with me so I won't be lonely for quality company. Kathleen has promised to help me pack my little red car for me Wednesday night. She has great spatial skills. I will be online again by Sunday night I hope. Classes begin on Monday July 12th.

I'm only taking Biblical Greek this summer. Class is 8.30 to 12.30 Monday through Friday with homework plus daily quizzes. I plan to create a routine early to keep up with class and dog walkies. I've found several dog parks within walking distance from where I am staying. Thanks goodness for Google search.

Thank you, thank you Resurrection and St. John the Divine. I appreciate your support and affirmation of my call. May you experience the love I've received from you.

Anxious Nancy
