This weeks West Coast Today carries a report on a special service led by the Very Rev Margi Campbell, Provost of St John’s Cathedral, Oban and Dean of the Diocese of Argyll & The Isles, last week which contained a blessing of the sea at Dunollie Lighthouse.
Provost Campbell and the congregation offered prayer for those who work at sea, and blessed the waters using seawater collected from nearby Ganavan Bay, a couple of miles north of Oban.
The service was part of the cathedral’s Festival of the Sea, celebrating God’s gift of the oceans through worship, prayer and community events.
