Spring cleaning

Cardinal Dex has answered my mail and has accepted to visit the Lamp's Chapel! The date is not fixed yet, but it is not every day that we have a cardinal over for a visit, and everything has to be perfect. 

I have requested urgent quotes from several parquet servicers and woodworkers, to make sure the woodwork of the chapel will be polished and scratches are repaired. Mittens has been using one of the pews as a scratching post, despite the fact that I have a cat scratching post from a famous brand at home.

The gold filigree on the altar cloth is a bit dull, and also the blood stain from that time Ishta pinned a sedevacantist to the altar with a knife never really got washed out completely, so I ordered a new altar cloth with same-day delivery. Janitorial crew is scratching the wax drippings from the candle racks and the floor, and is polishing the chalices. 

In his answer, Cardinal Dex also explained his plans for the Providence Theological Seminary. I am impressed at the scale that he has in mind! Our local congregation is not small, but the Providence seminary will -when finished- be a place of learning for up to two million students from all over that region. It would be nice to have our library accessible to the seminary students remotely, so I will also give the cardinal a tour there.

My own interest is more about a seminary specifically for capsuleers - for the peregrinan members of LUMEN that want to learn more about the faith. For now I have been working with each pilot who expressed interest individually, working out a personalized trajectory. But perhaps we can come up with a common learning plan and common resources rather than my ad-hoc improvisations...
