Rub for Good Luck

Well, I've been far more delinquent in keeping my blog up to date, than I ever intended - at least this summer.

CPE (Clinical Pastoral Education) continues. While it seems all consuming, I realise that I don't have it as bad off as those doing their work at other facilities. Yep, I'm getting off easy - I get to do my paperwork at the office, I don't have to make up any time I miss due to illness, etc (not that I've missed any, mind you).

CPE has also been an experience in multi-faith ministry. This past Friday, we attended a Buddhist temple, in Mississauga (hence the pic). Last week Monday, we were at a Hindu Temple in Scarborough. This coming week seems rather mundane - with no feel trips that I know of. I might actually spend some time with patients - we'll see.

With four weeks remaining in my CPE programme, we students have been offered the opportunity to help out for the rest of the summer, by taking on calls. Why would we do this, one might ask? Because they pay, and we're all students. Plus, this will have the added incentive that we won't have class work after an on call, like we normally would.

Anyhow, I should be off to bed, morning comes earlier.
