Psalms. Places. Presence.

Andrew. Richard. Niamh.
Home woven in three strands: partner, creatures, grace Some prayers begin in silence. Others begin in the small, ordinary movements of a home—the click of the kettle, the soft thump of paws on the stairs, the familiar presence of the person who shares your days. This new hymn grew out of that kind of holiness:… Continue reading

Rooted. Gathered. Blessed.
NeuroDivine has always been about recognising the sacred woven through our whole selves—our minds, our bodies, our ways of sensing and moving through the world. It’s a space where difference becomes a doorway, where the textures of neurodivergent experience are met with gentleness, dignity, and grace. This hymn grew from the ancient devotion of Tantum… Continue reading

Machines. Mercy. Meaning.
In the long, measured hours of dialysis, I began to notice how healing is carried not only by machines and medicine, but by the people who sit beside us, the families who steady us, and the landscape we carry within. This hymn‑poem grew from that stillness—a way of naming the courage found in ordinary care,… Continue reading

Heron. Curlew. Peace.
On 2 January, the Church of Ireland keeps the feast of Saint Munchin, the quiet yet foundational patron of Limerick. His memory is woven not through dramatic miracles or grand gestures, but through the slow, faithful shaping of community—hospitality offered without fuss, prayer built into the very stones of his dwelling, and a deep attentiveness… Continue reading

Name. Covenant. Praise.
New Year’s Day in the Christian calendar invites us into a quieter beginning than the world expects. While fireworks fade and resolutions rush in, the Church turns its gaze to something far smaller and far more tender: an eight‑day‑old child, named and marked in the flesh. The Feast of the Circumcision and Naming of Christ… Continue reading

Glory. Courage. Year’s‑End.
