Grand-kids staying overnight on Christmas Eve woke me up at 7:00am.
"On ceremony" at Midnight Mass and at 9:00am this morning. Have to preach at two masses tomorrow (Holy Family Sunday). Then I leave early Monday morning for my scheduled annual Retreat.
Probably not much different than the rest of you deacons out in "blog-land."
Maybe we ought to strongly encourage our respective bishops to spend twenty-four hours (Noon Christmas Eve to Noon Christmas itself) as a house guest of a deacon's family with overnight grandchildren on Christmas Eve.
Only the very best of Christmas blessings! I'll be vacant from the blog for about a week but will be remembering all of you!
