The transition continues

Advice from a Horse - "Take life's hurdles in stride; Loosen the reins; Be free spirited; Keep the burrs from under your saddle; Carry your friends when they need it; Keep stable; Gallop to greatness!"

This was on a bookmark recently given to me - good advice.

I shared this with our interim priest as I talked with him yesterday.

The transition continues for me and my friendship with Dana.
Some of this is unsettling and I expect it will be for a while.

We have had some parish meetings about what happened. They were useful.

Decisions about a new permanent priest will be some time in the future. As one friend said - we need to take as much time as we need to get ourselves sorted out. That sounds right to me.

Church activities are continuing although the summer is always quieter.

Memorial flowers will be bought and arranged and admired.
Candles will be lit.
Everything else that the Altar Guild does all the time will still go on.
