About me

Gender Female
Industry Non-Profit
Occupation Pastoral Ministry/Listening
Location Burbank, CA, United States
Introduction The first thing people generally notice about me is the sense of peace that surrounds me. I start my day with a thank you that I have received another day of life, surrender control of the results of this day's labor, and offer my time to whatever best serves God's will and His people. I have always found that my needs are fulfilled and when I am generous with what I have been given, I am blessed with more. I have a talent for and enjoy cooking, listening, writing, and photography, among other things, or so I have been told, so I share those things as often as I can.
Interests Reading, cooking, photography, spirituality, Merlin the dog, St Andrew's Abbey, swimming, gardening, volunteering, 12-step work, Vincentians and Benedictines, systemic change, social justice, compassion, saints, the Dodgers
Favorite Movies Beaches, Despicable Me2, (I don't see movies very often, so I can't think of any more)
Favorite Music John Denver, John Michael Talbot, Third Day, Casting Crowns, Michael Card, Tenth Ave North, Steven Curtis Chapman
Favorite Books The Message, most translations of the Bible, all of the Harry Potter books, Nora Roberts books, Andrew Greeley fiction, Chicken Soup for the Soul books, Matthew Kelly books, AA/OA program materials, Hazelden books

"szszszs," sizzled the waffle, as it wondered why it was falling onto the hot griddle instead of being lifted gently from the waffle iron onto a nice warm plate.
