A new ministry

A colleague from our ecumenical group has offered me an opportunity to assume his nursing home ministry.

I begin tomorrow.

The nursing home is run by the Daughters of Sarah. There is a small group of Christians who live there and meet once a month for prayer, scripture, and fellowship.

In my seminary days I had a nursing home ministry. When I lived in Buffalo I worked at a senior respite center and in a hospital based skilled nursing facility. I look forward to resuming this type of work. I always found it to be rewarding. The Lord works in marvelous ways through us and teaches us greatly through the challenges such a ministry brings.

I pray that the Holy Spirit will work through my hands and words to bring our Lord’s healing love to these folks.

Please keep me in your prayers.

    Thanks for the prayers and for comment.

    I used the SimpleTagsPlus plugin for WordPress. It allows you to tag for Technorati, Flickr, or Del.icio.us.

    I hoped it would work.

    I also created a del.icio.us account, added my blog, and added a “for:” statement in the tags pointing to blogs4God.
