From there to here
It’s been quiet on the blog front recently, but there’s been plenty of action otherwise. So I graduated last Saturday. That was sort of a big deal, I guess. It was a fun weekend. Appropriately celebratory and the like.
The day after graduation we packed our stuff into a storage unit. The day after that we cleaned our apartment and packed our car. And the next day we drove to Montreat, North Carolina for me to begin work at Montreat Conference Center. I had two blessed days of address-lessness which actually were a bit freeing. For a brief time I had only two keys to my name. Oh the light pocket, the freedom, the peace.
Then I got to Montreat, and, well, have a bit more responsibility now if responsibility can be measured by one’s key chain (and there’s several more keys to track down).
Work has been fun — hardly exactly “work” — and had taken plenty of mental, organizational, and even physical energy. My position, Director of Recreation and Community Life, calls for supervision of a broad and varied range of persons and activities around the conference center. So it should be a summer of thinking on my feet, working with some great folks, and enjoying God’s great activities in the mountains of western North Carolina.
So, as they say in Scotland, “that’s me” for now. I’ve got some posts coming up next week. I’ve also got to buckle-down and finish some writing for an actual paying gig so I won’t be posting abundantly for another few days or so. Keep checking back, though.







Congratulations, Adam.
Our church kids go to Montreat every year. I’ll tell them to look out for you.

It was great to run into you today here at Montreat…I didn’t realize that so much transition was occurring at the same time. Congratulations and good luck with the next steps!
Thanks, Debra. Lovely to run into you as well. Let’s do keep things in mind for fall. Enjoy the conference!
