2u.ie – making your day extra special
I took this photo last Sunday while visiting Mary O’Keeffe in Tracton Parish. What a beautiful display outside her front door and a lovely reminder of spring gaining momentum with every passing day.

Video for the Week🎥
This is my latest video called ‘Celebrating Saint Gobnait’. I recently visited her place of pilgrimage in Ballyvourney and I also got to see the musical ‘Gobnait’ which is currently taking place in Ballingeary. This video is a blend of both.
This was my video last week called ‘Celebrate Your Light’

Spiritual Thought For The Week
A Prayer to Celebrate love
We have just celebrated Valentine’s weekend. The main focus may have been romantic love. But there are many other different types of love too, spiritual love, sacred love, gentle love, simple love, joyful love, healing love, self love, single love, caring love, family love and the love between friends. For me personally it is my firm belief that all love must have a source and this source is our loving God.
Here is a prayer to celebrate love. Loving God, I know you are the source of love and you are love itself. Draw me deeper into your love. Strengthen and inspire me to live your love with generosity and joy, with imagination and courage. Help me to know that the smallest act of love makes a big difference. Even when life knocks me off course, help me to find myself in your love every day. You remind us in scripture that only three words really matter: faith, hope and love and the greatest of these is love. Amen
