Spreading Love & Hope...
Greetings of this new year, this time for new beginnings. These resources have been gathered for your use at home as we continue in physical social distancing and virtual social connection. May the shared words and music help you stay connected to God and the wider community.

The photos were taken on the morning of 1 January, when a magnificent frost covered Salisbury. If you have items to share -- a prayer, song, Bible verse, reflection, photo, link -- please send them to be shared with everyone.

Blessings & peace, Ana & Tod

A Song of Light
Colin Gibson, Aotearoa New Zealand
May the anger of Christ be mine,
when the world grows hard and greedy;
when the rich have no care for the poor,
when the powerful take from the need.
In a world of restless change
standing for love and faith and justice;
in a dark, confusing time bearing light,
the shining light of Christ.
|
May the pity of Christ be mine,
when the outstretched hand’s not taken,
when the jobless stand in line,
when the lonely live forsaken.
In a world of restless change
standing for love and faith and justice;
in a dark, confusing time bearing light,
the shining light of Christ.
|
May the love of Christ be mine
for the anguished, for the ailing,
for the frail disabled life,
for the fallen, for the failing.
In a world of restless change
standing for love and faith and justice;
in a dark, confusing time bearing light,
the shining light of Christ.
|
May the actions of Christ be mine,
bringing hope, bringing new direction;
making peace in a warring time,
offering welcome, not rejection.
In a world of restless change
standing for love and faith and justice;
in a dark, confusing time bearing light,
the shining light of Christ.
