Wednesday (St Martin of Tours)

Delivered our California guests–Brenda’s sister and brother-in-law–to O’Hare in time for them to catch their 0930 departure.
Worked via email with the choir director at Emmanuel Champaign to get ready for an online hymn sing that I’m guest-hosting on the 24th. The whole diocese is invited, and we’ll be including both Thanksgiving and Advent hymns. It looks to be fun.
Built out my developed outline for this Sunday’s homily (St Bartholomew’s, Granite City) into a full rough draft.
Grabbed a brisk walk with Brenda while the daylight was still robust.
Moved the ball noticeably down the field in some clergy deployment issues, by means of a handful of substantive emails.
