There is a saying that goes something like this: “preach the Gospel, use
words only when necessary.” The Gospel was preached recently in my
office and not a word was uttered. Practicing the wise words of the
superb poet, Mary Oliver, I was paying attention and the Gospel was
revealed.

The last blog I posted in early January, I told of my friends’ trials at the end of her pregnancy and premature delivery. I am happy to update you that right at 2 months later all are doing better. Rachel (my friend, and now mother of 2) had severe eclampsia and was living in a small city in China was not able to get the medical intervention she needed. After an emergency C-section on January 3 to deliver baby Ann (who weighed just over 1 pound), Rachel and baby Ann were air-evacuated to Bangkok several days later. Baby Ann underwent a couple surgeries to repair her bowels, but has made remarkable progress.

This Sunday, February 19, is Transfiguration Sunday, the last Sunday of the Epiphany season. Next Wednesday, February 22, is Ash Wednesday, and Sunday, February 26, is the First Sunday in Lent. Just as the Christian year is full of dramatic changes, e.g., going from the Transfiguration into the more penitent, reflective season of Lent, life very often fluctuates between times of celebration and reflection.
