St. Bridget’s Cross
Celtic Spirituality is rooted in the 5th to 8th centuries when Christianity was brought to the British Isles and Ireland. We start our day on a Celtic journey by praying and chanting the song of Saint Patrick, “The Deer’s Cry,” continuing with individual and communal prayers that focus on the four dimensions of Celtic Spirituality. We finish the day by learning to weave the Cross of St. Brigid while reciting her prayers and focusing on her ministry.
Dress comfortably. Bring a pillow or cushion to sit on. Bring a shawl or cape for warmth and comfort. Lunch provided.
