"The New Outline of Your Body..."

"Give us grace in our changing day
to stand by the temple that is the present church,
the noisome temple,
the sometimes scandalised temple that is the present church,
listening sometime to what again seems mumbo jumbo.
Make it our custom to go
till the new outline of your body for our day
becomes visible in our midst."

---------George Macleod (1895-1991)
Founder of the modern-day Iona Community
