by Fr. Aidan Wilcoxson.
"Aidan of Lindisfarne was a hard-working bishop who loved his people. I have a great love for him, and that is why I’m going to call this journal Aidan’s Song. Because, bumbler that I am, I’ve got a great Celtic Spirit-bearer singing on my behalf before the throne of God. And what I hope to do with this journal is, every once in a while, catch a few lines of that music and hum along in praise of the One who has made me a priest and who is my rejoicing.”
Thus Fr. Aidan Wilcoxson describes his purpose in this chronicle of a mostly ordinary year in the life of a superficially ordinary parish priest. But under that bumbling exterior beats a heart full of a contagious joy that spills over into these pages. For those who are curious how a priest spends his time, this book will be enlightening. For those who tend to get discouraged by the daily grind, it will be uplifting.
