OK, I did it

I officially put together a Discernment Committee, which puts me on the very early first step of the Process of Ordination in the Episcopal Church.

I honestly have no idea how it will turn out, and I don't have any expectation or really even a hope either. I am really going to make this committee live up to their charge as helpers in my discernment process, 'cause I got no earthly idea if I wanna be a priest!

Still, it is an exciting move. We'll start shortly after Easter. With fear and trembling!!

If you haven't read it, Nora Gallagher's 2nd memoir, "Practicing Resurrection," deals in part with her experience of going through the discernment process in the LA diocese of the ECUSA. It's a lovely book- though I do like the first one, "Things Seen and Unseen," just a smidgen more.

Good luck with your discernment process. Mine was very useful, even though I wound up choosing not to pursue ordination and an MDiv at the time. I hope yours is productive no matter which way you go.
