Pastoral Placement

Thursday was the first actual day of my pastoral placement.  Until this point I had been either involved with talking about how it was going to work or working on adminastrive aspects of how it was going to work.
Having been in done a day I think that this placement is going to before challenging but that it will also provided opportunities for personal growth and of course experiences that will be very useful in my rabbinic career.
That said it was more an introduction to place where I'll be working to meet some of the people with whom I'll be working and to meet some of the residents of the home and to have overall discussions about how both I and the home can make the best use of my time.

I have taken the chance to head back to stoke for a weekend. Partly to celebrate dad's birthday. I also need the opportunity to get out of the bubble and de-compress.
Next week and the week after I am out about doing shabbat Lech Lacha.  And then we will be in the very middled of the semester in fact towards its close.
onwards and upwards as they say.
