I need to start a Homliy journal… 

Gonna speak to my priest, see if he minds me taking notes during his homily….

Not sure if other people do it in other parishes? But it’s an unheard (notunheard “shocking” unheard…more literally not suggested) thing at my parish…

Gonna do it properly too. Put headings on the top of each page… ie. 21st Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year B. Put the date, readings, etc.

And when I read the Sunday reading before Mass (i usually try to before that upcoming Sunday) I will make notes on what I got out of the reading… and see if that helps me understand my priests homliy better.

because, WOW! His homily blew my mind tonight - like overloaded with awesomeness! and I can barely remember it. Just a few the rough idea! there were so many times I wish I had a notebook and pen on me. So i could write down those awesome statements he was making! But alas, I didn’t…

I mean, why not? We take notes at youth nights. When i go to events, i never go to a tak without it… why should a homily be less important?
