Yesterday I received my two new cassocks (one purple, and one black with red piping), and today I ran around Montreal picking up the last of my items for the ordination: my ring, my mitre, my crozier, my new alb, and so on. There are a few items still outstanding, but I do not need them for Saturday, so in other words I am good to go.
Tonight, we had the ordination rehearsal. It was great seeing so many people coming together for the final preparations for the ceremony, and frankly I feel like a big weight is off my shoulders. I have a few lines I need to memorize, but otherwise my last task is to pray be open to God’s grace. Please pray for me!
