Sometimes you have to speak out to make a change. The things you say might not be agreeable to everyone. Hopefully, when you raise your voice, it is met with an understanding spirit and heart. Good trouble is always good.

Another Mass Shooting In A School In America
Today in Uvalde, Texas, United States of America, there was a mass shooting in an elementary school where 14 students and 1 teacher were killed.
This should make anyone sick. But alas it seems to be par for the course.
Enough thoughts and prayers. We are well past that disingenuous crap. It’s also past time for real action on gun violence. Stop using the 2nd Amendment as a shield or a crutch. Stop valuing guns above people.
It’s time to turn weapons into plowshares. We have had enough violence for many lifetimes. America is a dangerous place to be these days.
A Graduation from the Education for Ministry Program of The Episcopal Church
Tonight I graduated from the Education for Ministry course that is a program of the University of the South at Sewanee which is an Episcopal university in Sewanee Tennessee. This was a four-year course in Old Testament, New Testament, Church History, and Theology. I am not the best student but I made it through and I am grateful for making this an important part of my life. Hopefully, it will help others as it helped me. It was a challenge and I finished. Yay Me!
