A Book of Blessings: And How to Write Your Own

A collection of blessings for the people, sadnesses, artefacts, special occasions and journeys of our lives. It also explores the tradition of blessings including biblical and Celtic, and offers ideas and resources to encourage readers to write blessings of their own with suggestions for how to organise a blessings workshop. Ruth Burgess, who is also co-editor with Kathy Galloway of "Praying for the Dawn: A Resource Book", leads liturgical workshops which often include 'blessing-writing'. She aims in this book to pass on her experience and knowledge.
