Monday Morning Musings

This morning I head off for a three day conference on leadership. Here's a snippet of the email I received preparing us, "Our topic is Christian Formation in the Missionary Church. In preparation, Christopher Beeley, who will be speaking with us about insights from the Early Fathers and others, suggested that we might want to read the attached excerpt from St. Augustine’s De doctrina Christania and to reconnect with the following passages from Scripture..." It's being held at the Franciscan Renewal Center, the same place we gathered last spring for the BE 2.0.

Thursday night I will conduct a class at the "Back in the saddle" church on creating a facebook account and using facebook. We going to create a FB page for the church and help parishioners create a page so they can particapate. It's part of their marketing and growing the church strategy. We may also create a blog for posting Sunday sermons and other info, in addition to their website.

Friday I have a wedding rehearsal for a wedding on Sat. I'm officiating and the wedding of a delightful couple I have been counseling since August. It will be a black tie affair, and fun, I expect.

Sunday I head off for Chicago, driving my daughter's dog back to her. Except for the dog on the first leg of the trip, I will travel alone. That's making everyone a little nervous. I may have to stop in and visit friends along the way in Texas, Oklahoma, and Missouri. :-) Of course, I will have a BIG dog one way...

That's my week. Now off to do some yoga, finish packing and heading up to Scottsdale, AZ. What about your week?

Busy week. Safe travels.

We're in the midst of a cold front passing through so there are heavy thunderstorms. It is dark inside (unless I turn on the lights!) and so seems "fall-ish" and I love that.

I had a lovely birthday and am appreciating all the friends and family who cared to send me wishes. Thank you.

Will be thinking of you through the week as you journey through. I think TN is out of your way, but should you want to detour, let out a yell! Traveling mercies to you, and we'll look forward to hearing more as you're able to post.
