Fall Schedule

Thursday, September 10th, 2009

As part of continuing education, and doing my part to make Norway Grove the best place that I can help it to be, I have enrolled in a program through Meriter Hospital to receive one unit of Clinical Pastoral Education over the next six months.One day per week will be clinical work. One other day will be seminars, group learning, and education. CPE, as it is called, is a combination of theological study, psychological learning about who I am, and the Spiritual component all around us.

My focus will not only be a self study, but how I can best serve the congregation with the gifts God has given me. You can expect me to be easily available all day Monday, Wednesday and Friday, as well as Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and Sundays. At all times I am available for emergencies, so please call me when you have an emergency. The office number is 846-9711. (Home and cell numbers are available by calling the church office)
