I'm just back from spending a pleasant day at Dalmeny.
I was with some friends for a Prayer Retreat with the focus on Healing.
We had a talk from a Doctor who is both a community doctor (GP), and a lecturer at the university teaching trainee doctors. It was interesting to hear of the growing recognition of alternative and complementary therapies that can be considered alongside conventional medicine - and prayer takes its place amongst the other complementary therapies.
We spent some time in the ancient church of Dalmeny, built in the 12th century, shortly after Dunfermline Abbey, and very little modified since those early days. Many original features remain and give the sanctuary great character both internally and externally. It's open to the public on Sunday afternoons, as well as for worship during the morning. It's worth a visit.
