The light dawns

Sunday 29th January 2017

Outside: the sun rises over the North Tyne at Bellingham

Inside: the light shows up the windows at the East End of St Cuthbert's church [picture by natural light only at 8.30 a.m.]

We heard the Gospel reading about Jesus at the wedding feast at Cana-in-Galilee turning water into wine  --  speeding up the natural process of rain water absorbed by plants and  converted to juice  --  and transforming a dull occasion into a bright one with some sparkle to it, replacing gloominess with fruitfulness in life.
