Catching up

I’m in the midst of such a whirlwind of activity and transition that I haven’t even posted about all the big events going on. On May 20, I graduated from Luther Seminary with a Master of Divinity degree. It was a joyous day of celebration with classmates and other family, friends, and great supporters.

Now the great exodus from campus has begun, as we all scatter for our various destinations. We’ve had some great opportunities to gather in revelry before all the moving started.

In a few days, it will be my turn, as I prepare to move. And that’s the biggest news of all…I have been called as pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church in Hartington, Nebraska, and Trinity Lutheran Church in Crofton, Nebraska.

So in the next three weekends, I will move to Nebraska, be ordained in Iowa, and be installed into my new congregations. As I said…a whirlwind of activity! I hope to return with more regular updates as the transition continues. There will be lots of excitement and exploring to do, after all!
