Wednesday Festival: The Carnival Continues!






Teri posted the question a couple of days ago, and for today's Festival-Carnival,  I'm going to do my best to collect all the posts from their various locales.  If I've missed you somehow or if you post after this goes up, please add your link in the comments. 

What's the most surprising connection you've made through RevGalBlogPals? Or the most surprising or helpful thing you've learned/experienced through this galship of friends?Of course, feel free to interpret the question however you'd like--"connection" could mean with another person or a congregation or even just bits of information that finally connect into a coherence you never expected. Things you've learned or experienced may have been helpful, surprising, or even surprisingly helpful though they at first seemed silly. Your experience and imagination is the limit--there are no wrong answers, only stories we all want to hear!

For instance:

Mary Beth writes about Surprising Galships.

Julie reminds us that we are connected through the matrix . . .       .

Rev Mibi writes about connections and help here.

Martha 'splains how supportive community thrives.

Kathryn reflects on the connection between geocaching and Revgals.

Teri connects across continents.

Deb delights in surprising acceptance and support.

Karla recalls being lonely in a new place, needing friends, and finding them.


How about you? How have you been surprised by/through/about RGBP? Share your story or your link in the comments! Use this format to include your post's URL:

midsummer Meet-n-Greet and Blog Carnival!!

One of my favorite things is telling people how great RevGalBlogPals are. We do incredible things in this organization. There's so much good news to share about this group! I hope you are all sharing the amazing things God is doing through RGBP, so we can welcome even more new friends!

This month we have some lovely bloggers joining the ranks...

Maureen, formerly the "40 year old seminarian" is now a UCC pastor in New Hampshire. You can find her at The Pastor Is In!

Odoroita is a recent seminary graduate in the UCC. She is in the process of moving from the East Coast to the Midwest.

Both write beautifully and include lovely photos in each post. Please stop by and say hello!




While you're popping around the interwebz, take a moment to write a blog post of your own. We're hosting a Blog Carnival in July! Each week there'll be a different carnival ride for you to play. We'd love to see you blog on the topic we suggest, then send us your links at wednesdayfestival@gmail.com or drop your link in the Wednesday comments! Don't have a blog? Write something for Wednesday's comments, or leave it on the facebook page, or just email us and we'll post it for you.

This week's blog carnival topic is: What does Galship mean to you? The phrase was originally coined to refer to RevGal Fellowship--all the ways we build community, share our lives, support each other, and have fun. So blog about Galship--have you had an experience of galship in person or online? Has galshipping changed your life or ministry? what's your favorite part of our galship? Or whatever way you understand the question--there are no wrong answers! What does Galship mean to you? Ready, set, write!
