Here's an old snapshot from my days in the Interpreter Training Program in Seattle. From left to right, Sharon, Nikki, Debbie one of our fantastic instructors who is Deaf of a Deaf family, and me being playful on the end. I absolutely loved ITP, all FOUR years of it, and sign language interpreting. Because of Debbie and the school I'll always have a connection with the Deaf World. There was so much love in our class, I really cherished that time together.
My connections run deep. I'm already getting involved in the Slovenian deaf community, learning their sign, making friends, and now suddenly helping them with some political advocacy! What next?

This sign language, spelling out the word "BOOK" came to fruition because of a brief set at College, the brief was very vague, literally create anything in any relation to books. Which made me think about sign language, and how important books are to the deaf.

Christian Pilgrims Around the World
For Christians around the world, there are many methods for becoming a pilgrim. In 1620, separatist pilgrims sailed from Europe to Massachusetts in search of religious freedom from the Church of England. Journeys to religious and historical sites in the Middle East or the “Holy Land” and visits to cathedrals in England and Argentina became pilgrimages for some believers. For others, leading a devoted Christian life was a pilgrimage, as portrayed in John Bunyan’s allegory, the Pilgrim’s Progress.
