Wednesday

Morning Prayer in the cathedral.
Prepared readings, prayers, and homily for the cathedral chapel midday Mass at which I was scheduled to be the celebrant.
Took part in a scheduled conference call with some other board members of the Living Church Foundation.
Produced a finished rough draft of my homily for Advent II (8 December at St Thomas’, Glen Carbon).
Attended to some routine end-of-month personal organization chores.
Spoke by phone with my U.S. Trust contact over some Putnam Trust issues.
Celebrated and preached the scheduled Mass.
Lunch at home–leftovers.
Remained at home to work the rest of the day, which was mostly consumed with producing an Advent message for the diocesan website (and, in due course, for the Current).
Into the evening, I completed an illustrated travelogue of our recent visit to Tanzania.
