Maundy Thursday
by Bishop Daniel
on March 29, 2018
- Customary Thursday early AM treadmill workout.
- Morning Prayer in the cathedral.
- Polished, printed, and scheduled for posting my Easter homily.
- Met with an individual in the discernment process for holy orders.
- Lunch at home. Leftovers.
- Took Brenda to a scheduled healthcare appointment.
- Spent the balance of the afternoon on a pastoral/administrative matter that is inordinately complex, sensitive, and just plain difficult. Read, consulted, pondered, made notes. The issue is already bathed in prayer.
- Ran home to retrieve Brenda and grab a quick bite at Tacos Pepe on Chatham (where Smashburger, of blessed memory, used to be).
- Back to the cathedral to make last minute preparations for the beginning of the Triduum.
- The Dean presided and I preached at the Proper Liturgy for Maundy Thursday: Washing of Feet. Mass of the Lord’s Supper, Stripping of the Altar.
