Ss Philip & James
by Bishop Daniel
on May 1, 2019
- Customary early-AM weekday routine.
- Performed some routine change-of-month calendar maintenance.
- Devoted some time and energy toward trying to figure out the best way to proceed toward maximizing the effectiveness of the diocesan communications apparatus.
- Made an appointment for then YFNBmobile to be serviced on Friday.
- Via an email exchange, made some incremental progress in a Christian formation project that is dear to my heart.
- Wrestled with the readings for Pentecost until I forced them to yield a homiletical message statement for the occasion (which will occur at St Michael’s, O’Fallon).
- Lunch from Subway, eaten at home.
- Turned my attention to the pastoral teaching document on sexuality and marriage that I’ve been working on.
- Laid it aside to take Brenda to a post-surgical checkup. Then we leveraged the fact that we were out and about on foot to turn the endeavor into a proper walk.
- Returned to the writing project and ended up with a rough draft of the next segment.
- Posted some material to the diocesan website regarding the Thy Kingdom Come Novena that we’ll be participating in again between Ascension and Pentecost.
- Evening Prayer with Brenda.
