Drove down last night to a Hampton Inn in Edwardsville/Glen Carbon. Headed out from there this morning for the regular 8:15 liturgy at Trinity Chapel, followed by the 10:30 Mass at St Paul’s Church, where we had one baptism and several confirmations and receptions. Alton Parish feels like a happy place under the leadership of the still newish rector. And I enjoyed getting back to doing what I do.
