Stuff I'm doing
Jan. 9th, 2009 11:30 amTrying to write Chapter 1 of my dissertation - I'd like to have the first draft in by mid-February.
Thinking about this summer's garden - more broccoli, possibly sweet potatoes?, more leeks, brussels sprouts; plus the same herbs (except that I've given up on lavender).
Joining the Commission on Ministry - they're the folks who meet with people who are discerning a potential call to the diaconate or priesthood. Evidently the Diocese of Vermont just ordained half (only 3) of its candidates to the (provisional) diaconate last week. Now we've got two who want to be priests and one who wants to be a permanent deacon. It seems so far like the folks I'll be working with are great, and I love my bishop.
Trying not to worry about entering the job market this fall. There were a total of 38 positions in Old Testament/Hebrew Bible, New Testament, and related disciplines this past year, and over 120 candidates (as reported by SBL). Makes me nervous . . .
