Cofio gwaed, remembering blood
A thought ramble on memory, WW1, absent grandparents, and Hedd Wyn
There is a corporate, cultural, timeless aspect to memory. It shapes who we are and is shaped by who we are. Narratives around the commemoration of of the centenary of the Great War have been playing on my mind over the last few years and the last week or so the notion of memory has been forefront in my reflections. My Mam’s Taid (Mother’s Grandfather) died at Yarls wood the day before Hedd Wyn,…

Facebook Folly
It’s been a tough Facebook week. Social Media makes it so easy to share opinions, share other people’s options, and tear them apart. It is less easy though if you are a person behind the opinion or position. As a Welsh speaking, trans, coeliac, Christian- it’s been a tough week on Facebook. Three things that I am (not have a position about or an opinion on but am*) have been up for general…

Revisiting places called home
Revisiting places called home - recalling the beginnings of a call to celibacy
I am currently visiting London, a city I love and lived in for 7 years. I’ve found myself wandering down numerous memory lanes and seeing old haunts through fresh eyes. Yesterday I found myself standing outside a building I lived for year in a tiny (and I do mean tiny) 5 meter square studio flat over looking the railway line. Nicknamed my ‘cell’ this was one of the most blessed and most lonely…

Lovers, Saints, and Celibacy
Dwynwen the 5th Century saint whose story explores the realities of love, sex, violence and faith.
Santes Dwynwen is the Welsh patron saint of lovers, but unlike the commercialised Valentine’s Day there is something in the story of Dwynwen that explores the realities of love, sex, violence and faith. Dwynwen lived in the 5th century and her story has been told and retold over the centuries. There are versions of this ancient tale that have been made more palatable, like this one by school…

The journey of the Magi from Iran to Bethlehem The journey to Jerusalem to present Jesus at the temple The flight to Egypt The return to Nazareth The journey to Jerusalem for the Passover We don’t follow these journeys in chronological order. Our reflections in liturgy have us leaping…

John the Beloved - our pattern of intimacy with Jesus
Today the Church celebrates St John, Apostle and Evangelist, known in Tradition as the Beloved Disciple. Scholars have argued in recent years that the Apostle and the Evangelist where different people and many more have argued that the disciple Jesus loved mentioned in The Gospel according to John is not John.

St Stephen
Saint Stephen the Martyr - our pattern of authenticity with Jesus
In the second part of the Mrs Brown’s Christmas Special The Virgin Mammy Mrs Brown reflects on the role of Mary in Christ’s life: We all remember that he came as a baby to suffer but no one thinks about how she suffered so he could suffer Suffering is part of our human reality – the reality into which Christ was born. The liturgical calendar doesn’t keep a saccharin Christmas- the feast following…

12 Days of Christmas
12 Days of Christmas - a joyful little think about an old song
Nadolig Llawen! Merry Christmas! As the sun has now set (in Cardiff anyway!) and so the 40 days of Christmas begin! Yes that’s right I’m going to be celebrating the incarnation happily until Candlemas on the 2nd February – you have been warned :) But, the reason for this post is not a rant on the 40 days but the beginning of the celebration of the 12 days. The twelve days of Christmas start with…
