Little Car has died. Was she a ‘four’ do you think, dramatic timing and all?
On a brighter note, lots of gold stars to award:
to Pauline & Graham, for rescuing me and driving the hills to deliver pew sheets.
to Alison & Margaret, for stepping up and leading the service on almost no notice.
to Maureen, for being right, and for never pausing in your concern for others even when all reason says you should.
I am spending quite a lot of time right now trying to help people understand canon 36: the canon by which two or more congregations can formally come together as a Joint Incumbency or a Linked Charge.
Because there are three congregations, every question is getting asked over and over again.
So, I am beginning a wiki. FAQs on Canon 36.
Would you please join in?
I’m not very clever with wikis and have started it off in Google docs. That means that if you are willing to join in I have to invite you, so — please tell me in the comments, and pass word on to anyone you know who has been involved in this process or is willing to admit to caring about canon law.
Alternately, you can suggest a better way for me to do this.
So far, I have only listed questions (it’s 10.40 pm on Palm Sunday, after all), but will add to it over the course of the next few weeks. My hope is that we can put together a draft for the committee on canons to revise and correct that can then be added to the Provincial Web Site. This is just an idea at this point, and I haven’t asked anyone, so don’t mistake this as official.
I do not love starting up online projects, you know, but it seems someone has to.
I’m getting ready for my last big liturgical road show. Tomorrow, all three congregations are meeting in Tighnabruaich, which normally only has resources for a dozen people. So, my props list looks like this:
(that last one is there just because I know I will forget something, so…)
Those in the know should hope that this year’s reading of the Passion will not be as dramatic as last year’s.
It’s the little things that bring joy to ministry.
today’s email included:
Hi Kimberly, I’ve googled St T[homas] A[quinas], boy, that guy rocks!! Just incredible!! Is there a ‘Rough Guide’ to the Summa Theologica! How does someone or anyone think like that?
Now, isn’t that what every priest lives for?
Can anyone offer the rough guide? I am no expert in Aquinas. Where does the curious casual reader start?
wonderful exchange
