Q & A
What is your Seminary assignment while you are there?- Seth Hinkley
Seth, thank you so much for your question. During your middler year of seminary at the Seminary of the Southwest, you are required to do either an immersion course or volunteer at a non-profit that does outreach work. I have a relationship with a Haitian priest and his wife who is a nurse through the Diocese of Alabama. I asked Kellaura if she would join me in Haiti for a three-week experience and thankfully she said yes!

I am reminded once again how blessed I am not to have to worry will I have water to take a shower or brush my teeth and this is a daily struggle that the Haitian people face. Once again, they have shown me that this is just life and life continues without light…

Smokin' for Mission: Students Plan BBQ Competition to support Episcopal Relief & Development
On February 2, the community at Seminary of the Southwest will gather for an afternoon of fun-filled BBQ competition at the seminary campus.

The best part of the event: all of the profits from the event are going directly to support the mission of Episcopal Relief & Development!

We have not had Internet for several days and this has been particularly hard on me. I need to be able to communicate with my family. Kellaura has been so encouraging and I am so thankful to have her here with me. I hope that we have access soon.

Today we had the privilege of attending a Eucharist in honor of the 3rd Anniversary of the earthquake. It is good to see progress after three years, but there is so much to be done. What remains of the Cathedral, Holy Trinity still stands and the ruble has not been removed. A very nice temporary structure has been built, but I miss the beautiful art work that gave such life to Holy Trinity.
