How Did I Get Here?

During the application process of Catholic Volunteers in Florida, we were given a list priorities from which to choose:  serving the homeless, the elderly, hospice, victims of domestic abuse, foster children, ex-offenders, etc.  I skipped it, as I felt The Lord would lead me wherever I was most needed.  (As a matter of fact, living with developmentally disabled adults was probably the last ministry I would have chosen, the challenge being too great, I thought.)  Well, Wisdom, which is God, sent me to L'Arche.  I think we're a perfect match. Every moment of every day I feel rewarded, and I think I am making a modest contribution to the welfare of these lovely souls.
