Heavenly Father, let our memory provide no shelter for grievance against each other, let our heart provide no harbour for hatred of each other, and let our tongue be no accomplice in the judgement of each other, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. (moved from yesterday) [using a slightly edited form of a Celtic prayer].
Feb 8: Feast of Ælfflæd (†714), abbess of Streanæshalch (Whitby). Her father Oswiu, king of the Northumbrians, vowed to consecrate her in infancy to the religious life if he defeated Penda, pagan king of the Mercians. This he did. Cuthbert’s girdle cured her of paralysis. pic.twitter.com/P70HTNZaVf
