On the occasion of my 76th birthday anniversary
July, 2005, on the occasion of my 76th birthday anniversary.
I am truly blessed to continue in the health and energy to share my gifts with others, still. This fall I shall teach three classes at Midway College in Ethics and World Religions. I explain to my students the good news and bad news about having me as their next instructor. First the good news is that I do not lecture and will not require a comprehensive final exam. The bad news is that I do require a lot of written work and class involvement. The adult students seem to love it, tho they still complain about the amount of writing required. We turn each class into an interactive workshop.
I will witness this year about forty to fifty weddings, both here in our Amazing Grace Chapel in the Cathedral of Nature and elsewhere. Our "Fierce Landscape" program for inmates at the County Detention Center (population often reaching one thousand), continues with volunteers presenting lessons weekly and positive outcomes. We are also part of an Effective Transitions Task Force appointed by the Lexington Mayor to better facilitate effective in-house programs to re-connection with the community, job, work and housing upon leaving.
I am still privileged to serve the Urban County Government in fire recruit screening and the Public Schools in screening for bus drivers. Our Spiritual Growth Network of Kentucky continues now in its 16 th year, meeting often in the conference room here on Winchester Road Sunday afternoons. I will lead a workshop on Celtic Spirituality for Ohio Psychologists and the Annual retreat Union of Psychology and Spirituality, Mohican State Park, and join Rick Reckman in another on Dreams, this fall.
Best of all, my wife of 36 plus years continues healthy, wise and generous, with family and friends. We have close contact with two precious grandkids who live in Lexington.
