What a great day today - my heart is full! @ipiskieblackisle.bsky.social

Well yesterday was emotional. An end of an era 14 years at All saints. Now off to Puerto Rico to clothe 4 novices and a profession! ✈️✈️

A quiet moment before sitting down for dinner. Feels a bit strange now, only two more weeks here. #simplychristmas #blueskybruvs

#simplechristmas one of my most precious Christmas things. A Mother Maribel CSMV bambino from the SSM sisters. Happy Christmas everyone.

One of the many things that has struck me about the celebrations at Notre Dame is the Archbishop is truly at home in the Cathedral and is enjoying being there. #notredamedeparis

The liturgies at Notre Dame have been so beautiful so far! I definately want to visit in the New Year.

Great to hear this!

A friend found this photo of me, must be about 99/00

Hello old friend, it’s lovely to see you again! #advent

A great thread for Christ the King.

I’m loving Sue Perkins latest tv program! She is so funny!

After reading the portion of the Rule appointed for today I wanted to see how much a hemina of wine is. I’m delighted to see that The abbey of Einsiedeln produce a wine called “Hemina”

Sr Marjorie Raphael SSM of the American house died on Thursday at the age of 101 and in the 78th year of her profession. I met her last year during my sabbatical. She was a talented artist. She was also devoted to the people of Haiti serving there for many years. May she rest in peace!

Time to bless the new Lectionaries - 2 weeks to go.

Oh well my first person blocked! Not bad for the first day !

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)

Here we are then, you and I, and I hope a third, Christ in our midst. - S Aelred. seems right for a first post.
