Greetings !  and thanks for looking in.   I was gone for the summer taking some sabbatical time as well as some vacation.  The sabbatical is designed to provide the clergy with time for study, reflection, spiritual renewal and rest.  Little of that happens during the normal year!   I wrote a blog during the summer which is still posted at:   www.st-christopher.org/Sabbatical.
