Thursday

  • Usual routine. Morning Prayer in the cathedral.
  • Spent the morning (until about half past noon) processing a batch of emails and taking care of some fairly urgent administrative tasks. This involved, among other things, substantive phone conversations with colleagues from two other dioceses.
  • Lunch at home (from you know where).
  • Left at 2pm with the Archdeacon for Salem and a 4:30 meeting with the Bishop's Committee of St Thomas' Church there. It was a fruitful and positive exchange at the beginning of a transitional season for them. I was particularly heartened by their receptivity to the emerging mission strategy of the diocese as I articulated some of its details.
  • We were back on the road (having consumed some pizza during the meeting) before 6:30, and, hence, back in Springfield at a reasonable hour. I am so grateful for a winter (so far!) of snow/ice-free driving conditions.
