Good afternoon. I'd another trip to Dundee over last wknd. 🧡🖤 Saw Utd lose but spent quality time with dad. #Epiphany was a lovely Mass & the drive home to Iona across Mull is special. Last pic: from Iona looking at rain over Mull. Winter's as busy as main tourist season! #isleofiona #mull #roadtrip

Rainy & windy these past few days....no let up either. We take in the beauty with gratitude; but calmer days bring opportunities for people's travel & to receive supplies #advent #gratitude #ponderings #isleofiona #HouseOfPrayerIona #weather #scottishisles #islandliving

Was good to get to Tannadice again last Saturday before I headed back to Iona. Had a smooth drive home Sunday with fab views across #Mull. Got earlier ferry so got back to #Iona without being stranded...result. Busy week at work now, providing hospitality for last guest of the season 👌🏻🙏 #winter

Blowin' a hoolie on Iona. Hunkering down & staying cosy. Storm Bert is making the house rattle. Although Iona is relatively flat, Cnoc A Chalmain' (Hill of the Dove) is slightly elevated, so relentless winds batter us! #isleofiona #windy #roomwithaview #innerhebrides #scottishweather #StormBert 🌬🌪

'You are God’s chosen race, his saints; he loves you, and you should be clothed in sincere compassion, in kindness and humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with one another; forgive each other as soon as a quarrel begins. The Lord has forgiven you; now you must do the same' [Colossians] #prayer

Quoting Cardinal Martini’s warning to “avoid considering the Church as separate from the poor as if the Church existed as an independent reality that must then care for the poor,” Pope pleads with Church and Governments saying “please, let us not forget the poor.” www.vatican.va/content/fran...

Feels like a gathering of lovely people under blue skies so here’s a quote from Teresa of Jesus which I hope will characterise this space - ‘All must be friends, all must be loved, all must be held dear, all must be helped. (WP4:7)
