Some of my favorite places in the world that I have seen thus far (in no particular order):
The gardens of the Alhambra in Granada, Espana
Allendale, a section of the city of Shreveport, Louisiana
The Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in northern MN
Canadian Rocky Mountains (Banff and Jasper National Parks)
The rooftop of my piso (apartment) in Toledo, Espana
Dorothy Sayre's house in Morris, MN
Columbia River Gorge near Portland, OR
Anywhere where I can sit and pray in front of the Blessed Sacrament
Upstate New York, the Hudson River Valley
Quebec City, Quebec
Roma & Assisi, Italia
My uncle's small farm / acreage in NE Washington state
Cinque Terre, Italia (National Park of 5 tiny cities smashed between the mountains and the Mediterranean)
Anywhere that I can sing beautiful music with good friends... especially performing with my Concert Choir
South Minneapolis, near Lake Harriet
The Humanities and Fine Arts Center in Morris, MN (specifically the Choir Room and Ceramics Studio)
The branches of People of Praise that I have visited or lived in: Minneapolis & St. Paul, MN; Shreveport, LA; South Bend, IN; Northern Virginia (Washington D.C.); Saskatoon, Saskatchewan (Canada); Colorado Springs, CO; Portland, OR / Vancouver, WA; and New Orleans, LA
I would love to visit the other 13 plus our new starts as well!
Vatican City, specifically within St. Peter's Cathedral
I am a teacher by trade, but I guess that's just the beginning. I am a City-Builder for life. This means that I am a member of the People of Praise; we feel called to help build the Kingdom of God by raising up the cities where he's called us to live. Life is full & busy, that's how I like it. Music is a big part of my life, so are the people that I live with, the students that I teach, the family I have, and the work the Lord has given me to do. Father, let me always serve you in what I do. Glory!
