Wednesday (O Adonai)
by Bishop Daniel
on December 18, 2013
- Morning Prayer in the cathedral.
- Sorted through the accumulated snail mail (none of it first class).
- Spoke by phone with the new rector of St Andrew’s, Carbondale (and priest-in-charge of St James in Marion).
- Did all things necessary to prepare to preside and preach at the 12:15 Mass.
- Spoke by phone with a fellow Nashotah House trustee on some pending business.
- Took care of some administrivia concerning our diocesan summer camping program.
- Began to put some meat on the bones of my Christmas Eve homily (I’ll be at the cathedral).
- Presided and preached at the regular midday cathedral Eucharist.
- Lunch at home, leftovers.
- Continued work on my Christmas sermon. Full rough draft now complete.
- Kept up with a stream of emails, an interesting exchange on a listserv, and an active comment stream on a Facebook post that happens to touch on the underlying assumptions of our mission strategy.
- Composed a fairly lengthy ad clerum letter, which should go out be email tomorrow.
- Evening Prayer in the office.
