I had a great nap this afternoon. On a snowy day, it is fun to just wrap up in a blanket and slip away.
I got up in time to concelebrate the 5:30pm Mass. Ron was the presider and preached. This Mass is called the “Ruppert Liturgy” and is an annual event. All those who have anything to do with people with special needs work on it and host it. All the liturgical services are provided by people with special needs. It is one of my favorite Masses here. Afterwards there was a reception in the center. I made a quick appearence and then went to the office. Ron came down and told me that my special friend, Mary Horan was asking about me. I went up and visited her. She is the youngest of the Horan family, who were in St. Bernard’s when I was growing up. Her sister, Pat was in my class and we have stayed friends over the years. She lives in California but I last saw her in Rome. Mary says she’s coming out for a visit so I hope to get together with the family.
Now, I am in my room and ready for bed because I have 7:30am Mass tomorrow. The snow did not stick!
I drove about an hour up Rt 95 yesterday when Lynn called to say the roads in NJ were getting slick. Got off northbound and got on southbound to return to Catonsville. The pastor in NJ called to cancel our workshop since he expected to loose electricity in his counry church. So I have an unexpected “free” weekend. Yeah!!!
