She plays the cello and has also been on the stage for ballet recitals in Natick since she was three. Vicky s leisure passion is her perennial garden, which provides ample fresh herbs for the kitchen. She plans in the weeks ahead to get some cuttings ready for travel. The family will also head north again this summer to do some camping on Hermit Island and Mt. Desert Island in Maine. Another aspect of my ministry that I see as a strength is my belief that people come to God in different ways.
Some people are introspective and reflective.
Others have to get up and do something. I hear a similar variety in the voices that speak out of Scripture, and they energize me as a preacher. The study of Scripture makes preaching central to my ministry. My responsibility is to lift up those ancient voices, to let them engage us and encourage us to move away from where we feel comfortable toward our growing edges. I believe that our differences can be our strengths.
