One of my very good friends and colleagues at our university, Dr. Kim Whitehead, was named Humanities Teacher of the Year in our state. Kim teaches creative writing and also a class called Religions of the World. Last year, she and a number of her students attended a Divine Liturgy at my parish (she is a very strong adherent of the concept of "experiential learning"). Father Chris perhaps remembers her.
I am just so happy for her and wanted to praise the Lord for this. Thought I might share this with you folks.

Conquer evil men by your gentle kindness, and make zealous men wonder at your goodness. Put the lover of legality to shame by your compassion. With the afflicted be afflicted in mind. Love all men, but keep distant from all men.

Please pass my (our?) congratulations on to Dr. Whitehead. She sounds like someone who deserves the honor. :-)
