CPE full swing

After a fun weekend that included an overnight at a local cabin with another PM couple, and a lunch with 2 PM families, CPE is in full swing.
Tuesday was our first day. I left at 7am on Tuesday and returned home on Wednesday evening around 5:30pm. Yes, if you do the math that is 33 hours roughly. I did get to sleep from 2:30am till 7am at the hospital. I shadowed another Resident Chaplain as On-duty from 5pm till 8am. We had a number of Trama calls over night and attended to both the patients and families.
This week is orientation, and Friday is our last day of that. We also received our unit assignments, which we can start visiting on Friday afternoon.
So, what do we have to offer? The summer students include 3 Lutheran Seminary students who are in their first year, 4 mennonite students for Hesston in the PM program. We are each a bit different, but yet are growing together, and I imagine struggling together as the summer moves along.
It is not so much what we have to offer, but how open we are to grow and help one another grow. May God be glorified.
