It’s here!  Prayers and Verses is officially published.
US readers, it’ll be a little longer, but it’s coming

Thank you to all my dear friends who have helped and encouraged me as I put this collection together, and for the loan of books!   Thank you also to those from far away who have been reading the snippets on this blog, it is so good to be connected to people spread far and wide.  Thank you, too for your encouragement.  Our connections with each other are all so precious.

Some things from the book:

May God make safe to you each steep,
May God make open to you each pass,
May God make clear to you each road,
And may he take you in the clasp of his own two hands.
FROM CARMINA GADELICA

 

Wherever you go,
May God the Father be with you.
Wherever you go,
May God the Son be with you.
Wherever you go,
May God the Spirit be with you.

 

 
May the Lord bless you,
may the Lord take care of you;
May the Lord be kind to you,
may the Lord be gracious to you;
May the Lord look on you with favour,
may the Lord give you peace.
FROM NUMBERS 6:24–26
