Back to my full-time job, finally!

To everyone who said a prayer for me while I was on strike, I thank you. The strike is officially over and we return to work after seven weeks of "labour disruption". Now if you would, just say a prayer that all may return (the people we serve, the managers and ourselves... the membership), with renewed energy and forgiveness in our hearts. It was a rough seven weeks for some more than others....the battle was hard-fought and at times made no real sense to this weary soul, but we have come through with a few scars and now the rebuilding begins. I received some lovely letters from some who walked with me on the picket line. No matter where we are .... the mission field is there!
