Wednesday (Phillips Brooks)
by Bishop Daniel
on January 23, 2019
- Usual AM weekday routine.
- Responded to a batch of accumulated emails, which sent me off into some calendar work.
- Spoke by phone with a cleric of the diocese who was (quite understandably) seeking a bit of pastoral care.
- Did the finish work on my homily for Epiphany III, this Sunday at Trinity, Lincoln.
- Chinese carryout lunch, from the joint around the corner.
- Spent an hour or so making incremental progress organizing our basement, which will be an ongoing project for quite some time.
- Plotted the shape of a sermon for Epiphany IV (Christ the King, Normal), from message statement to developed outline.
- Took my accustomed walk, on an afternoon of falling temperatures.
- Did similar homiletical development on my sermon for Epiphany V (Holy Trinity, Danville).
- Evening Prayer with Brenda.
- After dinner: Wrote a substantive memo to my Communion Partner colleagues, summarizing last week’s meeting in Toronto.
