Dear All, Already a week of Advent has passed – Lent usually drags a bit on me but Advent – never! It always seems to spin by hardly allowing time for real reflection on all the richness. I hope that you are finding it rich & renewing. I came across a prayer this week adapted…
Dear All, Well, Advent is here again & what a year it has been. This time last year we were looking forward to something approaching a ‘normal’ Christmas, & then back came a ‘lock-down’ not many days before the celebrations. What will this year bring? We can’t be sure, yet whatever does happen to our…
Dear All, Tomorrow is the Feast of Christ the King. Our reflections look at what Christ’s Kingdom is – where it is, whether it is something for the future or something in the here & now. We are moving towards the end of the Church’s year & next week we will be into Advent. We…

Dear All, I have heard several people say that they find November a particularly long & hard month – it isn’t difficult to understand that. In the northern hemisphere it is downhill all the way into winter & the dark & the cold. And in this particular week we are especially mindful of loss &…
Dear All, You will, I’m sure, be aware that at this time, (31 October – 12 November), COP 26 is taking place in Glasgow. Our reflections today are around that theme – Climate Change. One of them is a bit different from our usual ones, in that it makes some statements & asks some questions. …
Dear All, Over these next days we will celebrate ‘All Saints Day’ and then commemorate the dead on ‘All Souls Day’. So, for our reflection today we offer two pieces of writing: ‘For Everyone Born’ – this seems to be a recipe for ‘sainthood’ – if we can be part of making it a reality. …
Dear All, This week we are offering you something about journeying, travelling. I think it is because I have an awareness of time passing swiftly at the moment. Very soon we will be celebrating All Saints & then it will be less than a month before the end of the Church’s year & the beginning…
Dear All, I was looking at the reading we will have tomorrow & was struck not by the main texts but particularly by the psalm which is said or sung as a response to the first reading – in this case some verses from Isaiah. The psalm verses are taken from psalm 32 (33 in…
