Wednesday (St Kentigern, aka Mungo)

Took are of some routine monthly calendar tasks, and began preparing for the noon Mass (had to bone up on St Kentigern, founder of Glasgow) while still at home.
Morning Prayer in the cathedral.
Continued and completed Mass preparations.
Prayed over and took an initial pass at the readings for Lent II, which I will have to preach on St Paul’s, Pekin. (Yes, when I do a from-scratch sermon, there’s a long gestation period.)
Attended to some chores that will eventually collude to make corporate worship happen at the pre-Lenten clergy retreat next month. One of them involved dusting off my familiarity with a music publishing app called Finalte, which sucked up a disproportionate amount of time.
Presided and preached at the midday liturgy.
Lunch from La Bamba (“burritos as big as your head,” but I had a smaller one), eaten at home.
Responded to a few fresh emails before re-engaging preparation for delivering three addresses at the clergy retreat.
Met for an hour or so with a priest who is in the diocese as a finalist for one of our parishes in transition.
Returned to retreat preparation, and completed the second of my three addresses.
Evening Prayer in the cathedral.
