So. again my fantastic blogging prowess rears its head. September. wow.
so, I am heading off to a meeting shortly where the future is possibly, probably already decided for my parish. Big questions though – what do I do with it – how do I work with it and the people from the AS community to [...]

I thought I could easily make an install of buddy press and create this amazing parish super website. Its not going very well. I am not as technically proficient as I would like to be. I did sign the parish up for Facebook though, and am trying to get that going and useful, as well [...]

Community, any community, has norms and standards, and rules. That’s how it manages to stay together as a community. This is part of who we are, this is how we work. We all struggle with this, [...]

I struggle – I struggle with time, I struggle with getting things done, I struggle with being effective, or at least thinking that I am.
I am a priest. I pray, and I try to make my life into an act of prayer so that everything I do is prayer. Easier said [...]

Its Dec. 28th. Day four of the 12 days of Christmas. I feel as though I spent all my energy getting to Christmas, and now I don’t have very much to celebrate with. I struggled yet again against falling in to the consumerist trap of the holidays. Some days won, others didn’t. There is still [...]

You be the judge! I haven’t written here again in a really long time. 4 (almost 5) months this time though. new tatoos, marriage, a dog, and a lot more. I  am going to be back on track because I need to write here and get some feedback from “out there.” I should have some [...]

The last time I wrote here was January – not that I haven’t been inspired since then, in fact a whole lot has happened since then.  I’ve played a bunch more gigs, not played others, worked a lot, felt like I haven’t been working – did my first Lent and Easter with the parish, tried [...]

Besides the new place, things have been busy in the new year. This past week I was inducted (not a medical procedure FYI) – I officially became the rector of the parish that I have been working in since September. That all went pretty well, and I’m feeling pretty good about it all. There are [...]
