Tuesday (Dietrich Bonhoeffer)

Usual routine: contemplative prayer and intercession beginning around 0620, Morning Prayer, tea, breakfast, internet cruising, crossword, task planning, shower.
Dealt with a substantial bit of pastoral care by email.
Responded briefly to a message from the Bishop of Tabora.
Moved the ball downfield a few yards in the ongoing project of reassessing the diocese’s communication strategy.
Combed through Good Friday sermon texts from prior years. Identified one for use next week at Springfield Cathedral. Did some preliminary surgery to freshen it up. More to come.
Made hotel reservations for two upcoming special events.
Lunched on leftovers.
Dealt by email with some significant details pertaining to this Saturday’s Chrism Mass.
Did some substantial internet research in connection with a pastoral issue.
Long walk with Brenda on a nice afternoon.
Today was the day for pastoral stuff: More focused attention, via internet research and email, on an issue quite distinct from the other two I’ve mentioned.
Evening Prayer with Brenda.
