I am enjoying the beginning of my year
of Internship at St. Paul’s Lutheran church where I will be learning, serving
and ministering.
II am in my third year of study at Trinity Lutheran Seminary in Columbus, Ohio
where I am pursuing a Master of Divinity degree. I have four grown children,
a daughter-in-law, a son-in law and two granddaughters.
I have been on many mission teams and leadership teams for spiritual retreats
(Via De Cristo, Tres Dias, Kairos Prison Ministry) in this country as well as
India, Ecuador, Guatemala, Italy, and Ukraine. I went just this past year on
a Study Tour to the Holy Land. I have also been an active missionary with Compassion
International and Sirventos De Cristo. I have recently finished a term serving
on the Ohio Reformatory for Women Advisory council, and the ABC’s Nursery program
at ORW as a one-on-one mentor to the mothers who were incarcerated with their
children.
I am but the vessel… it is about being a vessel to share God and God’s Word with
Gods people. I have learned it is about listening to God's call whatever the
duty. In every place I go, I realize it is about love. It is bringing scripture
to our lives today.
I enjoy reading, taking walks and relish the wonders around me as I love the
crisp sound of the wind making the leaves
rustle,
the
smell
of fresh
cut
grass, the sweetness of the flowers, the singing of the birds, the crickets,
and the
beauty I see around me. I find such warmth and peace in the wonders Christ has
given us in the comforts of life.
Blessings and Peace,
Rhonda Gallagher
