- Task planning and blog perusing over breakfast.
- At 0830, still at home, joined a scheduled conference call meeting of the board of the Society of King Charles the Martyr. Such meetings are a great opportunity for multi-tasking. While attending to the meeting with my ears and voice, my eyes and fingers processed a draft agreement between one of our Eucharistic Communities that will be sharing worship, ministry, and mission (and a pastor) with an ELCA congregation that has sold its building. Also emailed my regrets about a meeting of Province V bishops that I will not be able to attend.
- Headed to the office around 1000, but waylaid in the parking lot by an extended phone conversation with a priest of the diocese.
- Checked in briefly with the Archdeacon and the Administrator.
- Drafted an initial publicity flyer for the November diocesan clergy conference.
- Began a task related to prepping for said conference.
- Lunch from China 1, eaten at home.
- Attended to a piece of personal business at home, and ran a short errand, before returning to the office.
- Finished the clergy conference task I had begun before lunch,
- Sat with my notes for Proper 19 (September 16 at St Mary’s, Robinson) until they yielded a homiletical message statement for the occasion.
- Composed and sent an email, in Spanish, to the Bishop of Peru.
- Wrote the twelfth of an eventual thirty 220-word lectionary meditations that will appear in Forward Day by Day in November of next year.
- Evening Prayer in the cathedral.
