What hump?
(10 points to alll the people who immediately let their mind's jump to Marty Feldman on that one.)
Mid-week and I have only two days left at work. Rev. Patti and John have been working so hard and the Mission Valley site is clearing out almost as fast as I am.
Some administrivia for you: this blog will remain. When it gets moved to my own website, we will either link it or give you the URL to find it. I believe there must be a way to access it through blogger.com
If you wish to contact me via e-mail, please use:
revduchess@cox.net
the other church e-dress will be phased out in a few weeks.
the church offices are moving but for now, any mail needs to go to:
Pacific Church, 3401 Adams Avenue, PMB#503, San Diego,CA 92116
And so far, I do not know plans to go anywhere or work any place in particular. Maybe God's memo to me hasn't been forwarded yet..
I appreciate the support of all the emails and calls I have been receiving.
Staying in touch

when you messed everything up as much as possible,you blamed everyone else and quit.
shame on you.
Hi,
Just a reminder, that I will answer comments within the comment section not as a new post.
That being said....
I want to reply to this morning's posted comment with all due respect that can be mustered in cyberspace.
Technically, I didn't quit--and if I had wanted to quit, oh I woulda coulda done that a long time ago.
And how interesting that someone who has such rancor towards me is interested in my blog??
Regrettably, many of the facts (years of which) will never be known or public, nor need not be as the church has gone through enough.
Nor am I going to try and 'defend' myself by listing the accomplishments, the victories, the individual triumphs that have taken place while I was here.
If you have such issue with me why have you not made it known to me directly? Why were you not part of the solution? Why do you choose to remain anonymous even now?
Clearly, you are hurt and angry. I can hear that. And I hope that you find solace and spiritual support somewhere. But whether you liked me or not; voted for me or not to be the Sr. Minister, agreed with me or not; or whatever your story, you still choose to go to blame and finger pointing. And please remember, You and I are ONE.
Blessings to you.
In peace,
REV. DUCHESS DALE
AS USUAL, TK IS THE VOICE OF REASON,A SWEET MAN. TOO BAD HE IS TAKEN. BUT I THINK THERE MAY BE MANY WHO FEEL LIKE THE THE ONE BLOG.
BUT THEY ARE TOO KIND,LOVING,SAD TO WRITE IT HERE.
NOW WE MUST TURN OUR SUPPORT TO THOSE WE FEEL WORTHY OF FOLLOWING.
WE ARE LUCKY TO HAVE GOOD PEOPLE TO STEP UP AND LEAD US OUT OF THIS MESS.
"We believe the ultimate goal of life to be a complete emancipation from all discord of every nature, and that this goal is sure to be attained by all. "
Dr.Holmes must be crying.
TK is right. Get a dartboard instead, OK? . You'll burn more calories and fewer bridges.
As a somewhat new person to the church, I don't know all the history and it doesn't really matter to me. I like this church and REv.Duchess. If you dislike rev. Duchess so much why do you stick around? Why bother to read her blog? I don't get it.
Hello, all. Allow me to throw in my 2 cents worth.
Rev Duchess is right; the anonymous person who did the drive-by is very unhappy and in pain. I join Duchess in Knowing that whoever s/he is, they have access to a practitioner and the willingness to be supported in Truth. We all deserve to be free of resentment. We all deserve peace.
This is hard time for all of us, folks. We have drawn each other into our lives and become a family and now the family is changing and it hurts. There is the appearance that everything is falling apart. Personally, I don't like it. I think it sucks. I also know that there is the possibility (and extreme likelihood, in my mind) that something wonderful can be born of it, for all of us. We have the opportunity to stay honest, to stay loving and to not indulge in either nastiness or spiritual bypass. I'll be the first to say it's a tough tightrope walk and I've slipped a few times in both directions.
I don't have any advice or suggestions. I'm getting through each day as best as I can, as gently as I can and being of support where I can, when I am allowed and when I have it in me. I don't know that there's any more we could be doing. I assume everyone else is too and I try not to take things personally right now.
Blessings, all. Hang in there.

You are IREREPRESSIBLE

From the mouth of the great Nelson Mandela: The time for healing of the wounds has come. The time to build is upon us. There is no easy road. We must therfore act together as a united people.
Thanks to all my Pacific Family who have recognized that we MUST look to the future and do whatever we can, contribute in any way we can and continue to LOVE each other as a brighter future begins to manifest.
It's time to LOOK IN THE MIRROR and say, "Where did I NOT support this family in the past and what CAN I DO to help create the loving,prosperous Church that this is.
THERE IS NO BLAME only oppoprtunity.
To paraphrase Ernest Holmes: " Treat and Move Your Feet"
The time for letting others do the work is over...This is a family journey..Let's take it Together..Larry
Thank you for all you have done for us Duchess.
As a member of PCRS since 1989, the one thing i have LEARNED is to release blame. We are all CO-CREATORS of our manifestations.Let's not blame one person who came here with strong intention and dedication. Instead let us express gratitude for the good that has occurred and be ready for the next chapter of our voyage.
Michael
Thank you Michael for those kind and wise words. AND for being willing to sign your name to your feelings.
