Wednesday

... and we're back:
  • Task planning (lots of it) at home. 60 items in play for what's left of this week.
  • Returned a call from a lay person living in the southern part of the diocese seeking some pastoral care.
  • Devotions and Morning Prayer in the cathedral.
  • Prepared to preside and preach at the cathedral midday Mass.
  • Conferred briefly with the Communications Coordinator.
  • Culled and cleared accumulated hard copy detritus from my physical desktop.
  • Responded to emails from a couple of clergy whose parishes I will be visiting soon.
  • Edited, refined, and printed the working text of my homily for this Sunday (St John's, Albion).
  • Took a walk in the neighborhood.
  • Celebrated and preached a votive Mass "For the Nation" in the cathedral chapel. The choice seemed appropriate.
  • Lunch from Taco Gringo (it's been a while), eaten at home.
  • Wrote a note of condolence to a former Nashotah trustee whose wife has just died.
  • Called to schedule an appointment with Fr Mike Newago, who is settling in as Priest-in-Charge of St Barnabas', Havana, but who is also Mission Strategy Consultant for the three northern deanaries of the diocese.
  • Attended briefly to some Forward Movement-related materials.
  • Attended substantively to some mission strategy issues.
  • Responded via email to a pastoral situation affecting one of our clergy.
  • Responded by email to the priest of yet another parish I will soon be visiting.
  • To the cathedral for an early-ish Evening Prayer (around 4:15).
  • Check in by email with yet another of our clergy who is undergoing vexing health issues.
