Yesterday I chatted with Andy Kerr in Casper. Andy comes to the Diocese of Wyoming in the way of long distance. He spent time in the Philippians (Andy I hope I get this right) and he was passing on some international travel tips. He loaned me a Blackberry (his old one) for me to use to text message back to Wyoming. He shared with me how to make an international call. I regrettably lost the phone and I am praying for St. Anthony to help me find it or to have the phone found! Andy also told me how to locate an adapter for my computer and other electronic devices that I may need during my trip.
As I get closer the reality of what is going to happen is starting to sink in. I am still in a state of shock that this is even happening in the first place. I can look and see that I have tickets in my hand and receive daily postcards from our host explaining what we need to do to be prepared. As I talk to other people about what I am about to do the excitement builds both for me and the other person. This trip is more than just for me to have a spiritual sabbatical, but it is a blessings for all who worked hard to make this a reality, which includes the Diocesan staff, the churches in Region IV (the southeastern part of Wyoming) and the Knights of Templar. I am truly blessed.
