Solomon...I think not!

Well, my first few days as acting pastor while Fr. Frank is on vacation have been enlightening. It didn't take me long to realize that, for some reason, everyone thinks when you put on the pastor's hat you somehow now have the wisdom of Solomon and can solve everything! I've been asked questions from "where do we keep the gluten-free hosts" to "do you think $125,000 is a resonable estimate for replacing the carpet in the church?" Both of my answers to these were, "I have absolutely no clue." Those were the answers that ran through my head anyway. What I actually said was that our sacristan, Frank, should know where they are so let's go ask him. To the carpet question I replied that we would have to wait until the other estimates come in to compare them and see if any are especially high or low because that might set some alarms off.

I may lose my sanity by the time Fr. Frank returns...and this is just my 4th day. Imagine what the next 7 will bring. Until next time (unless I am in the Osawatomie Psychiatric Ward)...God bless.

Re: Gluten-Free Hosts

Doesn't the Church say that there must be at least SOME gluten In the Host for valid consecration?
