I got an acceptance letter!!!

Really, all of Brazil is overshadowed by receiving an acceptance letter to Starr King tonight. I'm a little amazed because I wasn't expecting to find out quite this soon. I'm completely thrilled, and wishing I could celebrate with everyone in the bay area, but I'm sure I'll find a way to celebrate here. :)

Anyway, that really is the most exciting news, and I'm off to bed now. Dom has a big day of fun planned for tomorrow it sounds like, which will be great, but I think we're waking up fairly early.

  1. Congratulations! SKSM is lucky to get you. They probably let you know early so no one else could snatch you up ahead of them. Enjoy your trip. Love the pix. I think gitmo might need a bit more than a beach cloth--maybe a couple of throw pillows? xx

  2. Hey Marcus, a big, hearty congratulations from Stefan and me, and I'm sure Jimmie would congratulate you too if he knew what SKSM was. I'm sure I speak for Unitarians everywhere when I say it is a blessing you were born, and a blessing you will be continuing to share your ministerial gifts with us. Yay, more sermons by Marcus in our future.

    I love reading your Brazil stories and seeing your pics!

  3. Yes!! Congratulations Marcus - this is wonderful (but not unexpected) news - you've had that ministerial presence about you for some time now. Hope you have a great time on your trip - keep those posts and pics coming!

  4. Sim! SKSM was spoken into existence by you and for that and much more I bow to thee... The bigger game that you have choosen to play is shaping who you are. Everything is waiting for you. Celebrate with Jobim, savor the most delicious language that is portuguese and may you be well...

    Cheers

  5. Wahoooooo, and no surprise at all, and we are celebrating here. I am going to celebrate right now by going to sleep (which is the highest form of celebration in my house these days!).

    How I love your blog! Sending you many wonderful, encouraging thoughts.
    love, gogi
