Had the 8am Mass and explained about it not being Ascension Thursday – a number of people had come because their calendar said it was a Holy Day of Obligation.
I worked at my desk and cleared a lot of things. Also more newsletter corrections. Then I had the 11:00am Mass and took a nap. In the afternoon, I threw away a lot of paper. I had an appointment at 5:15 with a young lady who wants to be married here on April 13, 2013. Then I met with a lady who wants to get back into the Catholicism that she left years ago. We think we can do something.
Then Joan drove me to a hotel in DC, where the “Golden Apples” awards were being given out. This is an award to teachers in the Catholic Elementary Schools, which Cardinal Wuerl started here. Jennifer Raley, who teaches first grade at St. Michael’s was one of the receipents. I got there just as they were being given out and then the Cardinal spoke and we left. Joan came and got me and now I am going to bed. Too much activity today and I have the 6:30am Mass tomorrow.
I bet throwing all that stuff away is what exhausted you!!!
