hands

last week, a 93 year old woman in my congregation taught me to knit. I am so excited...I have wanted to learn knitting for some time now, and I am thrilled-da-dilled. I know crocheting, which I love--I even learned how to crochet beaded bangle bracelets...and pottery is my love, although I feel like I have backslid somewhat in that area...

I just find that when I am doing something with my hands, creating with my hands, I am most happy. I need to find a way to integrate this into my current ministry setting, as I haven't found the place or way yet...I pray that it will emerge.

Ministry of art, of creating, is important to me..and it is definitely a part of my calling......

Knitting? Er... I got distracted by your link to 'Cost of the War in Iraq' - the clicking over of the numbers every second. Outrageous! And our mouse of a PM just follows. Anyway, there surely will be an election here in Oz very soon and we might enter the 21st century.
