As the week begins, I am asking you, “Are you true to your calling?”
I met Sue Hogan originally at the Seattle University’s School of Theology and Ministry. When she became as a resident of mine, Mama Sue left an unframed piece on my desk. I framed it, and I take in the words in each morning. Mama Sue’s friend, Sister Joyce Roach, O.P. created it.
I am called daily to Living Stones Ministries Rock On! As the week begins, I give gratitude to my friends and the strangers, who continue to be supportive of this venture.
I also give gratitude to my most recent supporters including Deb, Diane and Theresa; friends in Bremerton, who made yarn and loom donations; my friend Michael, who will be making a donation of his talent to raise funds; and even the staff at The Central. As I ate my turkey wrap, the staff at The Central shared with me about the neighborhood so I took the time to look in the faces of those in need, and possible ways to serve.
Mostly, a big thank you to my new friend, Keri Pollack, who believes in my projects and those I am serving. She has connected me with a possible partner for Living Stones. Loving it!
A previous team member and always a friend, Michael appeared at my office door one morning. He presented me with a painting, “The Holy City of Juju.” I was surprised. I never knew Michael had this talent and developed it.
How blessed are you
for you have remained
true to your calling
and have carried the torch
of light for all to see.
You are an
instrument of change,
a prophet of hope,
a catalyst for transformation!
Be glad and rejoice,
For you are the voice
Of a new creation
And you are the
new light of the word.
