FEAST OF ST COLUMBA [COLUM CILLE] at the Old Friary, Kenmore Hills
On Sunday the 9th June we celebrated a Feast of Thanksgiving for the life of St Columba (Colum Cille) of Iona as we explored his life and mission. A period of reflection and prayer was offered with participants invited to pray in the beautiful grounds of Old Friary using the Labyrinth and Old Friary gardens.
The afternoon rounded off with an Ecumenical Celtic Eucharist in the Chapel at 5.30pm when we offered thanks to God for the life and work of Colum Cille and all that he has to offer us.
Presented by Rev’d Sandra Kjellgren and Old Friary Worship Community
