SINGING WITH THE SAINTS

Today at St. David's we sang... and prayed... and shared a sacred meal in honour of the legacy of faith we have received.  We were also mindful of the legacy we are in the process of leaving.

A “legacy” as ‘anything handed down from the past - as from an ancestor or predecessor.’ We all receive legacies in varying ways. Faith is personal and a present reality for each one of us, but in some way or another that faith was nurtured by the legacy of others. Our scriptures are a written legacy from the faithful past.

The lives we live based on the faith we develop will be part of the legacy for the generation to come. We are leaving our legacies right now. It is a good question for reflection, before it is too late: “How do I want to be remembered? What will my legacy look like?”
