Back!

                       (Sumner, Macie, Me, and Grahame at Macie's Baptism Anniversary Dinner)

It has been a little over a year since my last post...this is greatly in part to several things:

• Taking 4 classes
• Working full time
• Having 2 kiddos and a hubby
• Completing an internship

Needless to say I needed to let some things go.  Since family, church, work and school couldn't be put on hold, the blog got in the "later" pile.  These days I am happy to announce that I have completed my Masters of Divinity, continue to work for Odyssey Hospice as a chaplain, and have 2 wonderful kiddos (a bit older now) and a fabulous hubby.  I'm also beginning work with Palmetto Presbyterian as their Director for Congregational Ministries which excites me to no end!  I will be able to serve the Lord in the parish ministry as well as with my hospice patients and families.  It also means my family will get to join me in the adventure.  Love it when ministry and family coordinate themselves!

This blog will continue to do what it did in the beginning.  It will be a resource, outlet, support for parents who are working together to celebrate and encourage their children's faith development.  I look forward to the journey with all who join.  Please feel free to send questions, concerns, and JOYS!  If you find something that works, please share.  I know I don't have all the answers, but have a heart to seek them.

It is great to be back and I look forward to the dialogue in the future!
