The Gathering

The more "formal" educational part of this trip begins today when we meet up with some of the other Revgals - for some continuing Ed with Jenee Woodward of Textweek. From facebook, we have gleaned that a lot of them are already here, having flown in to New Orleans yesterday. It is strange to think that we might bump into them on the street - there is a sense of forces "gathering". And, of course there are many whom we have never met before and would not recognise even if we did meet before we are together on the ship.
And so we move on today, (as we do every day, but rarely acknowledge) to new opportunities, to new relationships, to new learning, with a great sense of trepidation and anticipation. And, of course, with the assurance that God is with us and goes before us. Thanks be to God.
