VTS 07 Summer CPE

A place where I, Steve, can selfishly blog and hopefully have some friends along with me. Our focus this summer will be dealing with CPE (Church Punishes Everyone) and the trauma that goes with being a chaplain, being in community, and group process/group think. All are invited, and if you've run across us please do jump aboard.

twas the nigth before cpe...

and all through my mind are visions of "oh crap" dancing through my head. I don't really have a response to any of the readings today, but instead I wanted to offer a prayer for each of us.

Almighty God you are the giver of all good gifts. To some you gave the gift of healing. To others you gave the gift of intercession. Some you blessed with a calm and peaceful spirit. Still others are darn good administrators. Grant each of us the strength needed in all situations we might encountor this summer. Bless us as well as the residents, patients, families, and staff members who seek our help and in turn minister to us. Grant us each a willing spirit to do your work and bring you all the glory. Fill us with the power of the Holy Spirit through Christ Jesus our Lord. Amen!

Peace be with you all. My prayers are with you, and please pray for me.
