Leaving on a jet plane …

… don’t know when I’ll be back again.

But at least it’s going to be an exciting ride!

I leave for the airport in just more than two hours. I’m almost all packed … It’s no fun if you sleep before making cross-country trips and/or large life decisions.

We’ve got five days of orientation ahead of us. All the East Coast JVs are making their way to the Bellarmine Retreat Center in the Blue Ridge Mountains. There we’ll have sessions on social justice, simple living, community, spirituality and the mission of JVC. Then we’ll learn logistical things, like about our health insurance …

Anxious to leave home, familiarity and people I love, but so thrilled to start something challenging.

Don’t know what the Internet situation is going to be once we get to orientation. We won’t have wifi at home either, so we’ll see how long it takes for the next update on my life as a JV.
