ARE you enjoying your summer holidays? I do hope so! Holidays are times for rest and relaxation, and an opportunity to restore our body, mind and spirit in order to cope with the daily pressures of life. However, we can enjoy holidays or “holy” days all the year round. Setting apart a time each week and each day to renew our souls is a good activity throughout the year that can bring about physical and spiritual benefits to us. Jesus says: “Come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11 v 28).
by the Rev Andy McPherson, Anglican area dean of Bournemouth, St Saviour’s Church
