Half Way Done!

Today is a great day. I am officially finished with the semester and now I am half way finished with seminary!!! I finished up my last bit of work and took a killer final yesterday and now I feel relieved. Upholding a Cross Cultural Ministry Center tradition we all went out to the Pilsner Room to knock back a few cold ones after class last night. Three of our professors plus three alumni from the program joined us. It was a good time. I have about three weeks until the summer session starts and that is a great feeling. I am glad to have this semester over. I have never read so much in my life. My eyes need a rest. I probably read more than I needed but I was just following directions. This summer I will have a class on the synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, & Luke) with an emphasis on Luke. We will also spend some time with the book of Acts. I also am taking a class called "Urban Ministry". It should be fun. My summer classes are very condensed. We get the assignments a week before class starts and have to do some before we meet. Then we meet every day for nine days in a row, followed by a week to finish any assignments and projects. This is the first summer we are doing it this way. We will see how this all plays out.

As I type this we are waiting for the social worker to arrive for our family interview. She said it would take a couple of hours. It is one more hurdle to jump in the long adoption process. I will keep you informed.

That's about all for now. Talk to you all soon.
