This weekend the Chuch is celebrating the Good Shepherd so I have been sent to Shepparton (2 1/2 hours from Melbourne) to share about my vocation during the Masses there!! Its so nice to be able to do that after an intense time at my desk finishing off essays. So far 3 assignments have been completed (over 8,000 words in total), and on Monday I begin yet another on the Gospel of Matthew!Lake view in Shepparton above!
A reminder to check out my newly updated website on www.ThatsWorship.com!!
God bless!!!!

A pastor was discussing the 23rd Psalm with some children in his congregation. He told the children about sheep, that they weren't smart and needed lots of guidance, and that a shepherd's job was to stay close to the sheep, protect them from wild animals and keep them from wandering off. He pointed to the little children in the room and said that they were the sheep and needed lots of guidance. Then the pastor put his hands out to the side, palms up in a dramatic gesture, and with raised eyebrows said to the children, "If you are the sheep, then who is the shepherd?" He was pretty obviously indicating himself. A silence of a few seconds followed. Then a young girl said, "Jesus: Jesus is the shepherd." The young pastor, obviously caught by surprise, said to the little girl, "Well then, who am I?" The girl frowned thoughtfully and then said with a shrug, "I guess you must be a sheep dog." :)
