Theologian in Training

Just got back today. Words cannot explain how incredible of an experience it was. There were 102 people, many of them first time clowns (baby clowns). I have not had that much fun in a loooong time.

What was really amazing was when we were all receiving our certificates and the founder of the camp came upon me. She looked at the certificate, said, "Padre" (their nickname for me) then asked where I was, had me come up and tell everyone, if I wanted to, what I did.

So, there I was, donned in full clown costume and make-up, standing in front of over 100 clowns (new and old alike) telling them that in about two years I was most likely going to be ordained a priest (said most likely because I don't want to presume God's Will, and never will until hands are laid). Anyway, there was a couple of cheers, a few sounds of astonishment , and then a very kind round of applause. The woman that founded the camp said how she realized I will be busy the next few years but invited me to be their chaplain somewhere down the road. I told them I would be happy to be one.

Many people of all religions came up to me afterwards, congratulated me, and thanked me, especially in light of the scandals.

All in all, it was a great time, I miss it all already, where else will you learn how to spin a plate and balance it on your finger in class?

God Bless

I know that there were a lot of pictures taken of me, both in costume and not, both juggling and learning something new. When I find out who took them, and they email me them, I will be sure to post some.

God Bless

Some pics. I am not in them, but I met them all, and a lot of them are the clowns/ teachers.

God Bless
