Time Flys, when doing God's work!

Wow,
It is already mid november. Next week I take off for a week or recreation and SLEEP. I have been quite busy in the parish and working on different projects. Three weeks ago, I attended two days of the Camelback District Camporee, north of Payson. I had a good time and spent time with our Catholic Troop from St. Daniels. On Sunday the 29th of October, I headed to Kingman for the Centennial Celebration. It was a joyous event with great weather, minus the wind during mass, but the Holy Spirit was definately moving the people, there were over 1100 people there!
Two Weeks ago, I spent most of the weekend doing Bobcat work for the new school playground. Sand was moved and holes were dug. The playground project continues each weekend and hopefully it will get done as soon as possible.
Last weekend, I helped with the Diocese of Phoenix, Catholic Committee on Scouting Retreat. I led a session on persecution for the scouts and helped with a mass. The day ended with a campfire and retirement of Flags. A fitting way to pay tribute to our Men and Women who defend our freedom on Nov. 11th.
Today, I was taught the fourth and fifth grade together. I have gotten all my classes to the same page! Thus, as I go forward, everyone should be in sync and less confussion for me on where I was and where I stopped.:)
Next week I have a week off. I will be in Kingman for Thanksgiving and then travel for the weekend! It will be nice.
Until the next posting, God's peace and blessings!
