I talked with the Dean - she is really an awesome woman. She is a major part of why I like this place...she is a fantastic teacher, will be a good mentor, and is multi-talented. So we talked about the job and it is undecided. She still needs to interview other people and see who might be the best fit for the job. I told her I wasn't necessarily "called" to the job, but that I was called to live in this community. I mentioned my desire to know how a seminary works, how I think the networking would be good for my future, and just to live in this community would be an education in itself. I offered to do whatever they needed...be registrar for the month of May until they can find someone more computer qualified than me - or be the Dean's assistant, in whatever capacity she needs.
My flexibility is attractive. My computer skills are not...and, if I am in seminary, going to class and doing the job could be a challenge. So we left it open. She may need me to fill in for May...the current registrar is done at the end of April...and then who knows?
I hafta say I am relieved. I am truly not attracted to the job, I'm attracted to the place. I want to help, but not sure the job of registrar is my best avenue. I already miss my porch and my flowers. I love my house...but I have put it out there - and prayed extensively about this, that I will be used in whatever way I can do the most good.
We also talked about me doing some marketing. LOL - as much as I hated marketing for Holistic Fitness...doing some basic things for Sancta Sophia sounds like fun. Especially in St. Louis where I know everybody:) Who knows...maybe something will open up there:)
It's really odd to interview for a job and not be attatched to the job. I truly want them to get a really good person for this position and I want to help. I'm also not sure I'm quite ready to leave my house. Can you believe I was already missing my porch and flowers?
