Two days left at work. Wow! That was a long way coming, and yet it snuck up on me. And so I pray …
Christ, our peace and our strength, your call to each of us is the same – “Follow Me” – though the paths are different. I am approaching a rather large fork in the road on my journey with you. Tomorrow I will say goodbye to my career and my coworkers of 11 years. This is not sudden. It has been on the radar for more than 2 years. I am not having cold feet or second thoughts, but that doesn’t make it any easier to say goodbye. Be with me. Grant that I may feel the peace and strength that comes from you as I drop my bureaucratic nets to answer your call. Amen.

Hi Susan,
Good luck for your last day at work tomorrow. I am sure it must feel strange to be leaving what has been familiar for so long, letting go and looking forward at the same time. I have a feeling that your sense of peace will be long lasting and that where you are going will feel familiar in a different way; like coming home. I hope and pray so.
You will be in my thoughts and prayes as you become Sr. Susan next week. It is an easy date for me to remember - my birthdy! - as so I will remember you. Thank you so much for sharing your journey :-)
Trish
