That Bright and Sunny Tuesday

I remember well that bright and sunny Tuesday that changed everything – September 11, 2001.  I am sure most of us can remember with great clarity the events of that day.  That’s how it can go with trauma.  On Friday we will remember this day - the day brought us both great acts of tragedy and great acts of kindness, courage and love.  I remain haunted by the violence and the loss of lives of men, women, and children who died that day.  I remain deeply moved by the great acts that were done by many in the name of kindness.  Today, let us not forget to act towards healing our nation.  I have notices in the last thirteen years we as a nation have become so divided that we no longer allow another point of view in our discussions.  We have become quick to label the other side of an argument when we used to defend the other’s right to speak.   I hope we forward in peace and grace. Let us begin to listen to one another again and let us heal.  Let us remember the best of us this September 11.

    I graduated from St. Vladamir's Orthodox Theological Seminary in Crestwood, New York with a Master of Divinity.  I trained as a chaplain following graduation and worked with a wide variety of people. 

    When I moved to Canada, I began work in a women's halfway house in Hamilton, Ontario which worked with women in conflict with the law on a federal level.  I became the program manager and  loved working alongside the women, creating their plans for their reintegration back to the community.  I also worked as a liaison with the parole board, parole officers and other community service providers.

    Upon my return to the United States, I worked in the Death Care Industry as a Family Service Counselor, which lead me to become a green burial advocate. I co-founded Midwest Green Burial Society with Juliann Salinas. I speak  to community groups and have developed practical seminars for a variety of audiences.  I have been interviewed on a national podcast and was featured on a WGN spot dealing with green burial.
