Statue of St. Columbkille |
But this year, as we celebrate the end of construction, Archbishop Lucas has given us a dispensation to celebrate the Feast of St. Columbkille Sunday. This weekend we wil use the prayers from the liturgy for St. Columbkille -- and may be the only parish in the world to do so on Sunday. At some Masses the priest may use the solemn blessing attributed to St. Columbkille. Here it is:
May the Lord be a sure path beneath your feet,
a bright light before you,
a kindly shepherd behind you:
this day, this night and always.
And may the blessing of almighty God,
the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
come down on you and remain with you for ever.
Amen.
