Events a'plenty

There's a lot going on right now.

I guess the first thing on the list is to finish up all of the work that goes into putting on a retreat.


A while back I agreed to create a game for the April retreat called "Faith Football." In its simplest form, it's a glorified trivia game. But it's based on football: with a field, running and passing plays, penalties, etc.


It's fun, but daunting trying to create something from scratch.


There is also the wondering if anyone is going to show up! So far, response has been "okay." But that's not for me to worry about. I need to prepare, not watch the numbers.


That's hard to do, considering I'm the one putting the money and time into the planning and execution. It's times like these that I need to pray more.


Then there is the conference. It's VERY difficult to plan one "big thing" while you're planning another "big thing." But I love this conference. I wish I could work on it year-round.
This years' guests are going to be awesome. Check out the website for more info: http://www.realcatholicmen.com/.
I ask for all your prayers as well. Lord knows I can't do this
myself. I need to rely on Him more- and less on myself.
Stress can create an ugly monster. I probably don't have to tell you that. I suppose I need to pray to St. Michael more often too.
Sheesh- at this rate (with all this praying) I may never get anything done. Oh yeah, except for my eternal salvation.
God bless you all. I hope you're having a great Lent.
