Father Steven has been at his parish assignment for 2 months and has been settling in to the life of a parish priest.Along with parish life, Father Steven has been assigned as priest for both a pre-K through 8 grammar school and a local Catholic High School.   Father Steven has been doing his best to be available and getting to know everyone.We discussed how these assignments came about and ultimately, it is the Bishop who makes these assignments.   It is the Bishop's job to understand the needs of his diocese and know his priests so that can can put them where they can flourish.One of the promises that Father Steven made when he was ordained was obedience to the Bishop.   There is a beauty to this obedience in that when the Bishop makes his assignments, you trust that is where the Lord wants you to go.In many ways, this provides freedom.   Rather than stress over what is the right thing to do, obedience allows Father Steven to focus on doing the job well.
