Once again this message is being written on a Monday. My weekend was a full one. Allen and I spent Saturday in Sydney with Allen’s dad, as we share caring for him, along with Allen’s brothers and sister. Palm Sunday was taken up with meeting the Diocesan Council for Ministry with Young People (DCMYP) at Kilaben Bay, followed by the Way of the Cross and then choir practice for this week’s Chrism Mass.

As you know, I usually sit at my desk on Sunday evening to prepare this message in order to share with you, life in our diocese as well as some of what I have been reading. However, this week it has spilled over into Monday as Allen and I flew up to the Gold Coast for the weekend to catch up with our family. We had a good weekend, which was filled with everyone sharing food and conversations and lots of play time with all of our grandchildren.

Once again the events of the past week demonstrate that as a diocesan church community we have been actively and proactively engaged in spreading the joy of the Gospel and sharing it with the world.

I pen this message still filled with the overwhelming joy of having been present at the ordination of Bishop Brian Mascord, along with thousands of others, but most significantly with hundreds from our own Diocese. It was a most spectacular, enriching, powerful, spirit-filled, wonderful, joyous, beautiful occasion. It was indeed our church at its best.

It is hard for me to imagine that only one week has passed since writing my last message to you. So what has happened in that past week to make me feel this way?
