The bright Christmas wrappings are fading into a quieter hue at last...

The bright Christmas wrappings are fading into a quieter hue at last.

The moment to truly consider
 the gift of God's unguarded offering of Himself ,
made real again this Christmas,
 has arrived.

May  you and yours know the blessings of peace, love, and joy,
and may Christ,
beyond all division of creed,
 be born afresh in all our hearts.

I hope the haunting Wexford Carol helps us reflect,
and the joyful Calypso Carol

helps us dance our response.

Nothing like a dance around the kitchen to help the cooking along!
