I’d like to end this message with an exciting personal update. On June 6, 2022, I was commissioned as a provisional deacon in the South Georgia Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church. This is a major step that represents a mutual commitment between myself and the UMC denomination. As I continue serving as Emory's Christian Chaplain, I will be participating in a program called "residency in ministry" to prepare me for the final step of the ordination process.
I want to thank OSRL and our students for everyone's encouragement over the past year as I completed my paperwork and attended important interviews. It has blessed me.
That’s all for now. Please stay tuned for more updates on the important work of spiritual life taking place at Emory.
Blessings of joy,
Rev. Maddie Henderson
