More diary

1st February 2012

During December I celebrated at the weekday mass while our Rector was on leave.

On the 18th I was at the cathedral to present Marje Steyn with her certificate of long meritorious service in Harrismith. All the generations of the Steyn family were present and it was a truly joyful occasion.

Christmass was quiet. St Margaret’s had no Carol Service, Advent Wreath or Midnight Mass.
Fr Dintoe broke into his holiday to celebrate on Christmass Day.

I celebrated twice on New Year’s Day as well as continuing to celebrate the weekday mass until our Rector returned from leave.

Towards the end of January I audited St Peter’s, Zamdela – good to get back into the numbers game.
It was very good to see Barnard Litabo again.

The clergy retreat took place during the week of the 22nd – but I was not invited. Just as well since I had my annual heart check up in the cardio clinic at Universitas on the Wednesday. Everything still in good working order – thank God.

Lent starts on the 22nd of this month: maybe I’ll get pancakes on Shrove Tuesday.

I’m trying to plan a major holiday and hope to get it organised by the end of the month.
