I'm trying to figure out whether I want to add one more class. One exciting thing I'm looking to do this semester is a yoga teacher training. There's an awesome studio on the north side that teaches yoga for all kinds of bodies. I really want to le

Hey all, I wanted to post a quick update! I moved to Chicago this summer and am working on my Master of Sacred Theology half time, studying theology and worship. I'm working full time and living at the Lutheran school, right across from the University of Chicago. Life has cleaned my clock this semester, and I'm struggling to keep up. I've discovered a great opportunity I'll be applying for soon. It's a two-year residency at a church, and it seems like it would be a wonderful way to minister while finishing up ordination requirements. Stay tuned! It's Christmas time and the tree is up here in Chicago. We've not had much snow, but there was
