I just had the opportunity to spend a few days with ring member St. Casserole. I still remember the first blogpost of hers I read, both its detail and its whimsy, but at the time I had no thought we would ever meet and become friends “in real life,” as they say. Still, I encountered something in her turn of phrase that made me come back again and again, and eventually led to both a trip to her part of the world to volunteer after Hurricane Katrina and to the founding of RevGalBlogPals.
In this week some of us are preaching about a woman who encounters Jesus at the well, please name five encounters in your life leading to unexpected results. They might include learning a new skill, making a friend, falling in love, discerning a call or anything around or far off from those ideas.
If you play on your blog, please leave a link in the comments.

I played today: http://www.desertspiritsfire.com/2014/01/encounters-5.html Sometime this afternoon I’ll be moving again to another new place, and won’t have internet until Tuesday, but will try to visit blogs while my connection here still is live.
