ENDINGS AND BEGINNINGS

The weekend finally came to a close. And it has been a LONG one. Two trips to Butte on Friday, the trip to Helena on Saturday, the ordination, the reception, the trip home, first full Eucharist on Sunday, baptism/confirmation class, Lessons and Carols Sunday night, greening the church, potluck, and another trip to Butte today to return AKMA.

And I've realized that I haven't even touched the Christmas eve service. I should do that . . . soon.

The ordination went splendidly. The sermon was great. Nothing tragic happened. And we had tons of food leftover. Which was good, because we needed it for the potluck after Lessons and Carols.

All of that is over, and now it's on with the rest of my life. After all that we've been through, it's good to be here. If this next phase is anything like the last, we won't be bored.
