Dear Jan Hus,

     I'd first like to apologize for being so out of touch this past year. As many of you remember, Rebecca and I left New York to move to New Orleans, in large part to be near my mother, who had pancreatic cancer. She lost her courageous battle with this disease in June of this year. Rebecca and I were able to spend her final year living in close proximity to her, which was an enormous blessing to us. Her memory shines very brightly in our lives and will always do so.

     By way of an update on our lives, I am graduating in two weeks from the Tulane School of Social Work. I plan to work as a counselor, teacher, and pastor. I have forged relationships with three PCUSA churches in New Orleans and have preached several times since moving here. New Orleans is a vibrant, diverse community with a fascinating cultural and religious life. Rebecca and I plan to continue to live here for the near future. Rebecca is continuing her work in documentary filmmaking and recently directed a short film for the city of New Orleans on the topic of wetlands restoration.

     We miss Jan Hus and think of you all often. My experience at Jan Hus has given me a unique approach to ministry for which I feel very grateful. I hope to keep in touch with all of you and send my warmest prayers and love. Love, Jason Ferris
