Wednesday (St Willibrord)

Morning Prayer in the cathedral.
Attended by internet and phone to a pastoral matter.
Walked to Illinois National Bank to deposit my paycheck. Could have driven? Yes? Why did I walk? Because it’s all about racking up steps on my pedometer.
Conceived and hatched a homily for the feast of Christ the King, at the parish of Christ the King in Normal, on November 25.
Lunch at home.
Conferred with Walt Knowles, an old friend from college and priest of the Diocese of Olympia, who is in town to lead our upcoming conference for clergy and musicians.
Participated in a conference call with other leaders of a Communion Partners event next week in Florida.
Ground out a rough draft for the above-mentioned sermon.
Left at 4:00 for Champaign, where I had a dinner engagement with the Rector’s Warden of Emmanuel Church and his wife, then a 7pm congregational meeting to discuss transitional issues.
Home around 9:45.
