- Still adjusting bodily to time zone whiplash, I was awake early and into the office before 8am. Morning Prayer in the cathedral.
- Made preparations to preside and preach at the cathedral midday Mass.
- Dealt by email and text with detritus from yesterday’s Nashotah board meeting.
- The Archdeacon having just returned from six weeks in Sicily, we had a lot to catch up on.
- Met with the Communications Coordinator over a couple of website and database issues.
- Left to take Brenda to a dentist’s appointment.
- Talked with Paige a little more about the website and processed more Nashotah-related email.
- Surveyed the resources available to me for seminarian aid. Made appropriate plans. Wish I had more. Blessed to have some.
- Celebrated Mass in the cathedral chapel.
- Picked up some BBQ ribs at HyVee and lunched on them at home.
- Spoke by phone with the Dean of Nashotah House. Followed up with some emails.
- Responded to an Ember Day letter from one of our seminarians.
- Responded pastorally by email to a letter from a lay communicant of the diocese.
- Closely reviewed our recently-revised diocesan canons to spot any tweaks that may be desirable. There are a few, but none so urgent that they need to be dealt with while we’re still catching our breath from the revision process. I set a reminder for next March to start vetting some possible changes.
- Evening Prayer in the cathedral.
