Return to Iona

Soon I shall return to Iona.

Ever since I left Iona in October 2012, I have longed to return.  And so I shall, almost exactly two years later.


I yearn for the natural rhythm of the place- the tides and times of island living, and the routine of daily morning and evening prayer services.


I felt my life, my soul, shift as I passed the days and hours on Iona.  I brought that shift home with me, and I have felt it deep within me as I live my life in a more sure way. Sure that my faith will support me in all times and in all ways.



I caught my breath with this first glimpse of Iona.  Soon I shall catch my breath once again.

Traveling Mercies.
