Done electing a bishop

And I cannot tell you how exhausted I am. Our diocese is large in a physical sense and I drove 400 miles round trip in a 26 hour period to go cast two ballots. There are many who drove much more than I did.

I'm okay with the bishop elect. He was not my first choice, nor my second. But as I stated in my last post, he was strong on paper and he should be a fine bishop.

My best friend in high school, an experienced priest, is looking for a new cure and I just emailed her to tell her of the opening created by this episcopal election!

I am too tired to write much more. I trust the Holy Spirit's workings in all of this.

Good on you! This is demanding, tiring, very important work.
