Lent Series: Danielle Morton

Danielle Morton reflects on her own experience of vocation

Due to the suspension of all liturgies and gatherings in our diocese, we have been unable to gather for the past two Wednesdays in our Lenten series of stories of call and vocation. We did, however, arrange to have Danielle Morton record her presentation remotely. Danielle is a member of saint benedict's table, one of our team leaders to our participation in the "Communities of Calling" initiative of the Collegeville Institute, and the Spiritual Life Facilitator & Coordinator of Commuter Programming at Canadian Mennonite University.

During the course of her talk, Danielle references a book by Kathleen Cahalan entitled The Stories We Live: Finding God's Calling All around Us. More information on this book is available at the Eerdmans Publishing website. She also references a song by Gord Johnson, an original recording of which is included at the end of the podcast talk. The lyrics for that song are as follows:

Gone is the darkness

Now comes the dawn

O good shepherd

Lead me on

Lead me on

Lead me on

O good shepherd

Lead me on

Green are your pastures

Where I belong

Tender your mercies

Lead me on

When in my weakness

You are made strong

Saviour and keeper

Lead me on

Soft is your calling

Sweet is your song

Willing I follow

Lead me on
