We now know the conclave will begin on 7th May. Let us pray for the Church at this time and the Cardinals. May we all be open to the Holy Spirit. A time for prayer rather than speculation. Conclave to elect new pope to begin on 7 May, Vatican says www.bbc.com/news/article... 🙏🏻 #Conclave

Many of you know Mia from social media, Zoom & some have even met her IRL. Sadly this week she was put to sleep. She had been well until the last few days & didn’t respond to antibiotics.
She was 13 and been my faithful sidekick for 5 yrs.

A lovely poem to reflect on as one year ends and a new one begins.
Letting go & welcoming by Joyce Rupp
Each new year extends an invitation
To re-enter the process of transformation,
For self & for our world.
We stand at the threshold,
Looking back & looking ahead.
