Stay a While... in Schenectady: Lasting Change

http://stayawhileschenectady.blogspot.com/2011/02/lasting-change.html

Stay a While. in Schenectady. Friday, February 25, 2011. There are certain events that easily remind us just how much time has passed – birthdays, holidays, changing seasons. Yet there are other more subtle changes and patterns which cause us to quietly acknowledge how far we’ve come, how much we’ve grown and how well we have or have not lived. One of those subtle unexpected revelations recently occurred to me…in the form of pink plastic flamingos. Had I not lived in the Stockade for over a year, I may h...

Stay a While... in Schenectady: French Recollections

http://stayawhileschenectady.blogspot.com/2011/01/theres-nothing-like-snowy-day-in.html

Stay a While. in Schenectady. Thursday, January 13, 2011. There’s nothing like a snowy day in Schenectady to make one dream of springtime in Paris. In fact, just as the sky released a heap of flurries across the Northeast, one of my best friends decided to purchase plane tickets for a 4-day pilgrimage to the city of unfettered romance. Le Quartier Latin,. The Gothic steeples of the Notre Dame preside over. L’ Île de la Cité. As I passed over the pages I had written during May 2005, I relived the morning ...

Stay a While... in Schenectady: Coptic Crossings

http://stayawhileschenectady.blogspot.com/2011/01/coptic-crossings.html

Stay a While. in Schenectady. Wednesday, January 26, 2011. While de-icing my car this morning and wondering if I had enough washer fluid, riots broke out in Egypt. While snow and sleet covered the ground beneath me, the streets were set ablaze in Cairo. But I didn't know any of this. Now, as the crisis in Egypt continues, I can only think of this family. As we approached the cash register, a wide-grinned middle-aged man came from behind the buffet and offered us each a sample of Turkish delight. With...

Stay a While. in Schenectady. Sunday, June 12, 2011. Shared at the Stated Meeting of the Albany Presbytery at the United Church of Cohoes, June 11th, 2011). I feel very honored to have been invited to your time of worship this morning - and especially to have been asked to share my thoughts on mission and how it has impacted my faith.

Stay a While... in Schenectady: Spaciousness

http://stayawhileschenectady.blogspot.com/2011/04/spaciousness.html

Stay a While. in Schenectady. Monday, April 4, 2011. At the end of the summer, I’ll be leaving Schenectady for Kentucky to study at the Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary. I will be packing up my apartment in the Stockade, saying goodbye to my friends at the City Mission and driving to the horse country, which will be a much different reality than my current surroundings. Over the course of two days, I completed several tests, both in person and electronically. These “instruments,&#82...I thoro...

Stay a While... in Schenectady: Journeying Out

http://stayawhileschenectady.blogspot.com/2011/03/journeying-out.html

Stay a While. in Schenectady. Monday, March 7, 2011. In Ann Morisy’s revealing book. Journeying Out: A New Approach to Christian Mission. Morisy describes the challenges of today’s mission-minded church by noting, “Journeying out requires rising above the anxiety associated with encountering and embracing a potentially overwhelming outside world.”. However, with plenty of volunteers already scheduled to pass out plates of food, with plastic gloves and a courteous smile, we were asked to address another n...

Stay a While... in Schenectady: Self Care

http://stayawhileschenectady.blogspot.com/2011/01/manicure.html

Stay a While. in Schenectady. Monday, January 10, 2011. Of all the trivial luxuries one might think of in a down economy, getting a manicure at the local salon might be one of them. But my mom always taught me that taking good care of oneself is not a luxury. In fact, it is an investment in personal well being, something that is priceless when prices for everything else are high. On top of all this, I had contracted some kind of itchy eye-lid rash, which made me feel like a freak every time I woke up wit...
