Summer

In some ways, this month and next are a bit of a sabbatical.  Work is keeping me very busy, but it’s a summer job and will be over by mid-August.  And it’s the last chance I’ll have in the foreseeable future to be a teacher, up in a classroom helping people learn and discover stuff.  Teaching is just about my favorite thing to do in the world, so this one last fling is sheer delight.

When I’m not involved in lesson plans, teaching, recording assessments and keeping track of materials and traveling to teaching sites, I’m making phone calls and writing letters.  Keeping in touch with supporters and scheduling an itinerary for the late summer and fall (the calendar shall be posted here shortly).  These two lives, of reading teacher and missionary candidate, keep my days pleasantly full.
