| February 2nd was an amazing day because I was blessed to attend the Episcopal Ordination and Installation of The Most Reverend John Balthasar Brungardt as 'The Sixth Bishop of Dodge City' "May God's blessings be on Bishop John Brungardt all the days of his life" |
On this Wednesday morning it was only 1°, one of the coldest days in Kansas. Luckily the night before we parked the Bravada in the center of the driveway. Planning ahead was a very good idea because if we didn't, we would have been snowed in for sure.
Yesterday, July 18th it was (believe it or not) 109° here in Wichita. What better day to finally make this post and drop off ice cream to some of 'my favorite Sisters' in the world? The photos were taken on the morning of February 3rd. I just couldn't believe the snow slopes on our walkway. On the morning of February 2nd, I wasn't sure my husband was going to be able to get us out our driveway much less drop me off at work to carpool with friends from Wichita to Dodge City. My heart filled with gratitude, thank you God, thank you husband and thank you 'car pool friends' for a day full of blessings. Do you see my smiling eyes?
In Bishop Brungardt's own words written in a note of thanksgiving "We celebrated a glorious Ordination and Installation Mass". Yes, it was a glorious day touched with God's grace on every fine detail at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Dodge City on 'The Presentation of the Lord'.

From the prayer of consecration at Holy Mass:Father, you know all hearts. You have chosen your servant for the office of bishop.
May he be shepherd to your holy flock, and a high priest blameless in your sight, ministering to you night and day; may he always gain the blessing of your favor and
offer the gifts of your holy church.
On Bishop's Prayer card, a prayer for all ~
"The Lord crowns you with love and compassion." Psalm 103:4
