Two years ago, I worked on a a translation of 'The Pastoral Prayer' by Aelred of Rielvaux, but never got around to doing much with it.
#Aelred was a spiritual writer whose insights are still as timely as they were in the #12thCentury. As an added bonus, he's got a rather unofficial reputation as #PatronSaint of #LGBTQFolx. 🏳️‍🌈

Over the next little bit, I'll be sharing it in installments on my blog. You can find the first one here: https://www.jondrowe.ca/post/the-pastors-prayer-part-1-2
