Hi guys,
I would have written yesterday, but what a Long day.
Yesterday as part of the Lenten series going on in Spartanburg, the Church of the Advent, Church of the Epiphany, St. Christopher’s and St. Matthew’s have been getting together each Wednesday night for a program dealing with hunger. The first night was a meal, some people just got rice or vegetables but only a few got steak.
Then last week, the program was about finding services and how difficult that is to do. And last night the program was about moving the food pantry food from the new building to the gym. They decided to do this because it would concentrate all of the activity to one location, and the potential to get folks through faster is there also. It’ll be interesting to see how it works next Wednesday.
This past week has been a struggle to get back on track but it’s getting better. That’s all I will really say about that.
Something weighing heavily on my mind, well a few things…
There is Charlie’s retirement, and the possible moving of my process over to St. Matthew’s. It makes me sad to not have my process at Our Saviour, but on a more-practical level, it also makes me nervous. It seemed to me like Our Saviour folks were going to help financially, with things like the Psychological testing and such. So, if I move my process, will that financial support be there? If not, what am I going to do?
Another question that has been weighing on my mind for about an hour or so now is this; my employment consultant from the Commission for the Blind called me and said that some equipment they’ve been waiting on has finally come in. It’s cool equipment, I’m sure it’ll help learning these things but why should I go down to Columbia to learn to use it? What good is it going to do me? When all is said and done with using that piece of equipment, will I be able to get a job knowing how to use that?
Another question that has cropped up was that Verizon Wireless is still an option, which would mean going to Columbia. My concern is that if my process moves to St. Matthew’s and I go down to Columbia, I’m sure I’ll come home during the time when I’m at the Commission, but what would happen if I got a job in Columbia? That is the major source of anxiety for me right now.
Whether I choose to go forward with it or not, it could take a few weeks, and who knows what could happen with my process. I’m probably worrying over nothing, but these are concerns for me. Please do me a favor and keep me in your prayers, I feel a little bit overwhelmed by the many things bouncing around right now. More importantly, I’m not sure what to do. So prayers for peace, a greater clarity in my life, and strength to face whatever happens would be appreciated.
Love to you all,
Nancy
