Reflections, thoughts off-the-beaten-path and (in)digestion of current events by a hospital chaplain from Indiana (where we're called Hoosiers) who moved to Australia in June 2008. Taking faith seriously, trying to make a real difference in the lives of people, and seeking to maintain a "balanced" perspective by clowning around on a unicycle and twisting animal balloons as my alter ego: "Clair de L'uni" are some of my favourite ways to journey through life. Grandfatherhood is also exhilarating!

Irene's Place in Canberra - where peace people seek to share and teach
From left, Jasmine Dron, Toby Tan, Moriah Hurst and Lee Wigens at the dedication of Irene's Place in Canberra, Australia.
I got involved in the "House Blessing" during the official opening on the 22nd of March. Here's the story.
And that's me reading the blessing at the end on behalf of the Mennonite Mission Network and offering the fruit tree to Moriah for planting there outside the door. Check out the very creative "script" Moriah developed for this special service. Now we need people - from all over the world - to come and join this initiative!
