This and That

A busy day today. Led morning prayers at the school and taught two classes, then home to finish up the TSP memory sheets for the rest of the year and put some finishing touches on the services for Holy Week and Easter. Matins was shoved off till 11:30 - yikes! But finally prayed and the BOC read - good stuff on Confession from the Larger Catechism. After lunch travelled to Alton, Maryville, Glen Carbon and Edwardsville communing shutins. Highlight was a visit with Alma who turned 99 last week! She's a marvel and a half. Home to work on homily for Wednesday, and then Vespers. After a bite to eat had an elders' meeting, and now am enjoying a glass of wine before hitting the hay. Tomorrow promises to be much of the same - except for playing for the Winkel in the a.m. instead of doing school. I'm looking forward to Pastor Feicho's preaching - he always delivers super-hi octane gospel.
