When you begin the week with a story as familiar and as startling as the road to Emmaus, it's hard not to start seeing amazing surprises everywhere. Whether it's the feeling that the campus ministry work that I've been inching is on the precipice of real movement, or the many and varied couples I'm preparing for marriage, or even the delight of reconnecting with an old friend from years ago, the days feel full of potential.
April will be over in the blink of an eye, especially with the conference and the youth mission trip. Each of these opportunities will spur new ministry and will solidify some of the core elements of my own call. I feel very energized about all of the possibilities that lie ahead and am excited to roll up my sleeves and engage this work.
This Saturday I'll be at the Mission Area Conference for Central and Western Massachusetts. I'm hoping to learn about what's going on in terms of community ministry around the area. This ought to be a good time for doing some networking as well. My hope is that I'll come across some blogworthy items to report both there and from the National Workshop on Christian Unity that is coming up.
