The Word is Out

The announcement to the parish community was made this weekend.  It was a good weekend to do it: folks are back from various vacations and school is up and running.  And, the rumormill was working overtime !

In addition, our parish school was named a Blue Ribbon School of Excellence by the US Department of Education.  So, it is a weekend for celebration all around.

Spoke this week with the Director of Continuing Education and Formation who assured me everything was all set.  Need to submit a budget for miscellaneous expenses above the cost of room and board.

It will probably take four months to get ready to go away for four months !

Here is a link to the video that the Institute has produced which explains some of the sabbatical.
