I hope to finish the update today
On Monday, 24th, although I said the 11am Mass and then went home to bed. I felt badly because there was a Memorial Mass for Lorenzo at 7pm at Christ the King parish; but I have to get over this cold.
On Tuesday, I said both the 11AM and 5:30PM Masses but was in bed the rest of the time.
On Wednesday, I stayed around my room the whole day. I didn’t have Mass because there was a funeral and Fr. John came back for it.
I didn’t feel up to concelebrating the 10AM Mass, so I stayed in my room. Fr. Justin was kind enough to bring me Communion. Umberto left me some turkey and cranberries and Italian bread and I had a couple of sandwiches. It was a very relaxing and I think helpful Thanksgiving.
On Friday, I came to the 8AM Mass because Fr. Ron is away and its been busy for the other guys. However, God sent Fr. Peter Ryan, SJ, whose family lives in the parish and he was visiting them; so he took the Mass and I just concelebrated. Then I went home and spend the day relaxing and eating!!
To, Saturday, the 29th, I just had a baptism. Please remember to include Adeline Shea and her family in your prayers. I decided I’d write this and “catch up”. I’ll go back and relax some more.
I have the 9AM Mass tomorrow, Sunday, November 30th; and I worked on my homily today. After Mass, I’ll drive to Maggie’s and spend the night. My nephew, Mark Thompson is in town for a few days and we’re all getting together at Maggie’s. I think Marie is moving back there also. She seems to be doing very well after the surgery. Thanks for all the prayers.
I’ll write again on Monday night.
