Skizzles

Yeah - this is my niece.....great gal and even better tennis player. Click on the pic to see some great action shots of her tournament from this past weekend. She is known to be pretty good at cards too.

Grace-ful times...

Here are some pictures from our wonderful vacation at Bella Beach on the Oregon Coast. Our day at Pacific City was the only clear day we got and a great day to take some pics with my niece. Nice weather or not it was great to have a week with family and to rest. This past weekend I went through the ordination process and passed....whew! It was stressful but, as always, God's grace proved once again to be more than sufficient. It was great to share the experience with close friends and family. Another piece of the puzzle is in place and we look forward to where God is leading us next. My residency ends on the 21st of August but I am allowed to stay until around the third week of September. By then I hope to have a job. Next things to check off the list are endorsement by my denomination to go along with ordination; applying for provisional certification through the Association of Professional Chaplains; and GET HIRED! Enjoy the pictures.
