Typical Day in the Life of An Ex-Priest...
A few ask---so here it is.
8 AM--Attending First Friday Holy Mass and confession with my son and niece
(decided a donut without frosting was okay little treat in Lent)
8:45 --Dropped off niece at school, returned home, checked on my father and readied to leave for work.
Late Morning--appointment and visit with mother to set up family conference and supports
Stop by my lovely wife's work--treated her with a tea and some bread (which turned out to be a cookie)
Surprises stop by old employment--for quick visit, met a seminarian and talked about priesthood.
Banking--to convert dollars to euros for pending trip to Vatican (Did I mention that Pope Francis has a copy of A Lost Shepherd?)
Afternoon--home for an hour preparing work for upcoming evening family session and conference. (and this quick blog entry)
Evening--leading a family conference
Then pick up my son from swim practice and home by 8 pm.
Nighttime--we are doing Louis de Montfort's Consecration--today is Day 31! Maybe we can pray Stations of the Cross together....?
Then to bed (Amen)
and hopefully finishing the book The Robe (part of my son's homeschooling curriculum and a family read--as usual i am last to finish)
So, not all 'ex-priests' have agendas or gripes that are being carried around--nope just guys living the faith! Thanks for asking.
