A Celtic Blessing

                                                          Think about it...

Today our Trenton United Church book study group continued, our third week looking at the Sermon on the Mount by Amy-Jill Levine. In fact there are participants from five congregation, thanks to Zoom, and I'm grateful for every voice. I've led a number of study groups at Trenton UC, usually with 14-16 willing souls. Lo and behold, today there were 16 of us. even though it was essentially half and half, in-person and Zoom. 

Because it was St. Patrick's Day I began and ended with first a Celtic prayer and then a Celtic blessing. I'll share that blessing with you: 

Deep peace of the running wave to you.

            Deep peace of the flowing air to you.

Deep peace of the quiet earth to you

            Deep peace of the shining stars to you

Deep peace of the gentle night to you

            Moon and stars pour their healing light on you

                        Deep peace of Christ, the light of the world to you.
