Tuesday (St Lucy)
by Bishop Daniel
on December 14, 2016
- Usual weekday morning routine. MP in the cathedral.
- Responded by email to an enquiry from the senior warden of one of our Eucharistic Communities in transition.
- After some technological issues, I finally managed to wire via Western Union some designated outreach funds to the bishop of our companion diocese of Tabora (Tanzania).
- Spoke by phone at some length with one of our rectors over an emerging pastoral issue.
- Refined, edited, and printed (and scheduled for posting) the text of my homily for this Sunday (at St Barnabas’, Havana).
- Lunch from McD’s, eaten at home.
- Substantive phone conversation with the Dean of Nashotah House.
- 45 minutes of quality time on the treadmill.
- Headed north with Brenda at 3:15, arriving at St Paul’s, Pekin in time to get oriented and situated and otherwise prepared for the 5:00 rehearsal ahead of the 6:00 liturgy at which we ordained Matthew Dallman to the priesthood. After all the festivities, it was 11:00 before we got home.
