MY NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION FOR 2009

The last couple of years, my New Year's resolution has been not to make any resolutions (inspired by Jeff Miller's "giving up giving up things for Lent").

This year is different!

My resolution is to be a parish music director and organist (for a decent salary) once again sometime in 2009, whether it be in January, June, or even December. It's not that I don't like the Schwan's job. Don't get me wrong. I do, however, miss the ministry. I've gone TWO straight Christmases without a parish post after over 27 years of service to the Church. Enough is enough!

The only requirements are
1. Decent salary
2. Appreciation for a music program that is primarily traditional
3. Comfort in introducing Latin and chant
4. Support for a liturgy that conform to the REAL wishes of the existing liturgy documents from the Vatican.
5. Must be within a reasonable drive from my home. My kids have a lot of things going here right now, so relocation is not an option.

I'll be on the lookout!
Peace,
BMP
