Thursday

Morning Prayer in the cathedral.
Spent time in the cathedral office helping get this Sunday’s service bulletins into printable condition.
Returned to my own office and left a string of voicemail messages for various people, all stemming in one way or another from Fr Roderick’s sudden passing.
Made some quick administrative decisions on matters that were presented to me.
Finished radically revising the homily I had already prepared for this Sunday (to have been delivered somewhere else), placing my message in the context of the week’s stunning developments.
Lunch from McD’s, eaten at home.
Aside from some minor interruptions (like going to get a duplicate for my disappeared driver’s license), I spent the afternoon getting the funeral liturgy booklet 98% ready to print. It will actually be a quite lovely service. Keith deserves a good sendoff.
Evening Prayer in the cathedral.
