Dear Friends, ‘The Fall’ – an Americanism for the season of autumn – but a very visual one – leaf-fall is so much a part of autumn. And the colours of those leaves before they fall surely strike us all. We will focus on this in today’s reflections, hoping that it will encourage us all…
Dear Friends, As always at this time of year there are many celebrations of Harvest. These attachments maybe enlarge our idea of harvest – so many different harvests go on on so many different levels – and then there are the effects of a poor harvest on the land & the causes of this in…
Dear Friends, Tomorrow we are celebrating ‘Evangelii Gaudium’ Day – The Joy of the Gospel – This is an exhortation written by Pope Francis in 2013. We are including a bit of a summary of it in case it has passed anyone by. It is an inspiring document & easily found on the internet. At…
Dear Friends, Like us, I expect, some of you will be beginning to get back into ‘ordinary’ rhythms. Many people will have spent time by the sea at some stage during the last months – others may live near the sea. The attachments today focus on the sea. Just a few different reflections – the…
Dear Friends, It is good to be getting back in touch with everyone again. We hope these last weeks have been positive ones for you. Ours weren’t really restful but a change in routine with fewer deadlines to meet & sometimes there was a bit more choice about how to spend the day! So, back…

Dear All, We hope the summer is going well for you. School holidays are beginning & the pattern of many people’s lives will change – change temporarily, or more permanently. Children, parents, grandparents, teachers are all adjusting to a different routine. Times of change usually mean choices. This week our attachments are loosely connected…
Dear All, These summer months present lots of opportunities for travel, for visits, for socializing, but hopefully they also offer us some quiet time on our own. This week we are focusing on the importance of ‘time apart’ and we hope you can find some of that time. We hope you enjoy this week blessing. …
Dear All, Last week we included a piece of John O’Donohue’s writing about Circles. We are going back to him this week as, in the context of the Circle of Life, he reflects on ageing. He refers to Celtic spirituality & so the other attachments are associated with the Celtic people and their spirituality.…
Dear All, We hope you are well & enjoying these weeks of summer. Attention to the seasons of the year brings us to an awareness of the circle that is the pattern of our changing seasons. Our theme today is that of Circles. So much of our life experience is circular in movement – a…
