since when

As you may have inferred, I am back at St. Vincent for my final year. My last week of summer was spent helping my siblings move, driving a lot, hanging out at home, hanging out with friends and packing. I came back here two Saturdays ago.

Since then, I've gotten my room arranged, had a first week of classes, and went to the parish for the weekend. It's been busy but fun. Being a deacon (and a 4th theologian - a senior, if you will) is kind of surreal. I keep looking for the guys in the class ahead of me, expecting them to still be here.

My classes this semester are pretty interesting so far:

Parish Practicum

Liturgical Music

Pastoral Leadership

Theology of the Priesthood

Pastoral Theology

Pastoral Counseling II

That's about it. I'm going to try to be more regular with blogging than I have been recently, but bear with me; it's going to be a busy (and exciting) year.
