15th Sunday of Ordinary Time

Perhaps we can gaze on this lovely fruitful garden in Dornoch as we meditate on the parable of the sower.



As we reach the end of the academic year 2010-11, it is appropriate that we sing a traditional hymn of dismissal sung at final assembly.

Lord, dismiss us with Thy blessing,
Thanks for mercies past receive;
Pardon all, their faults confessing;
Time that’s lost may all retrieve;
May Thy children, may thy children
Ne’er again Thy Spirit grieve.

Let Thy father-hand be shielding
All who here shall meet no more;
May their seed-time past be yielding
Year by year a richer store;
Those returning, those returning
Make more faithful than before.



Happy Sunday!
