Nephesh

The Hebrew word Nephesh means "soul, life or self", the plural of which is Nepheshim. Your Nephesh is your essence, that part of you that is most you. Your Nephesh is something you hide from outsiders but share with those who are closest to you. This blog is a place where Nepheshim can gather and commune.

Hello everyone! Kyle and Wendy, it was so good to see you Sunday night. Thanks for coming out! And CONGRATS on the internship. I must confess I got a bit nostalgic and choked up as we drove away...I am so excited for y'all, but for some reason y'all moving away made me feel like I was saying goodbye all over again...like in 1998. I am truly grateful for each of you (Pam & Jeff, Kyle & Wendy, Nicole & Chris, Jenn & Paul, Dan & Jona, Matt & Amy - and kiddos!) and for the ways you have loved me, taught me, received love from me, lifted me up, shared my life. I am grateful to be part of this community, even as it changes and we live further and further apart, you are all part of my heart and have shown me God's love and heart for oneness, loyalty, sacrifice and community in a way I have yet to experience anywhere else. Thank you!!! And that is my nephesh for today!
