1. Share a moment/ time of real encouragement in your journey of faith Encouragement comes to me in connections with people....and it seems that even just this week, there have been several moments of real, honest connections in the most random places--a restaurant, the pottery studio, and a note from a friend.
2. Do you have a current vision / dream for your work/ family/ministry? yup. Rainbows of dreams. In my current position, I simply want to be faithful to the work set before me, and help my congregation grow in vibrant and healthy ways. Personally, I want to do an advanced degree in clay, pastoral care, and spiritual practise. I dream of being a pet chaplain. In my family, we are not dreaming but working hard on living more healthy.
3.Money is no object and so you will.....
Just play in clay a little more, and travel a little more, but I would still be in ministry, No question.
4. How do you see your way through the disappointments? What keeps you going? Breathing. stopping. And talking with my beloved.
5. How important are your roots? Are you talking hair?
My spiritual and cultural roots anchor me, help ground me in who I am. Pretty important, especially as I wade into the perimenopausal phase of my precious life.
6. Bonus= what would you like to add I am going to go to Cleveland next week to see the Sox play Cleveland. I CAN'T WAIT!!!

six is fun, I love the pet chaplain idea, and I agree, encouragement comes through connections and relationships...
excellent play- love the rainbow of dreams :-)
Clay!! That is so cool. Bringing something to be from great feeling gooey stuff.
And breathing is good for disappointments. I always forget that one.
clay... wow. I can't "see with clay". Isn't it great how God's gifted each of us differently and equipped us differently for ministry? sometimes the variety is overwhelming.
oh forgot... blueberry creme coffee and some other yummy flavors are at www.gevaila.com (such a coffee nerd oops! I mean coffee coniseur here)
For the bonus: and, of course, you'll be cheering for the Sox, right?
:)
The Red Sox Nation rules!
I love the pet chaplain idea, too!
