Oops it's Wednesday already

Well, if you're interested, here's my week so far...

Monday: went down to Dayton and visit a book store. Stopped at the grocery on the way back.

Tuesday: school Mass for younger children (we have one school, but two campuses--campi?--between both parishes). Worked at my desk most of the day, stopped in at the girls' volleyball game, then to an enrollment-marketing meeting, then to Adult Faith Formation committee meeting, lastly 4th Degree Knights had a steak-fry. Saved that for last! Home after 9 pm.

Wednesday: worked on homily at home this morning, in office all afternoon. Most of yesterday and today, I've been preparing materials for an effort to raise money for building needs at St. Boniface. The parish faces $176,000 in very urgent repairs, plus another $260,000 in necessary repairs that need attention before long. (Since so many others raise $ via web sites, you'll see more on this soon.... But if you feel so inclined, make check payable to St. Boniface Parish, 310 South Downing Street, Piqua, Ohio 45356. Be sure to specify "building fund" on memo line or in a note, so it goes to this project--and thank you!

The bells just rang the Angelus; in a bit, I'll head over for the weekly Bible study, then get home by 8 pm. An early evening!

Tomorrow will be a busy day: more work on the fundraising effort, preparing my own talk, give blood, staff meeting, visit the hospital, wedding rehearsal, then the big meeting.

Thankfully, all the other things that need attention seem a bit calmer this week, knock on wood.
