Come get a brief overview of the faith of the people of Ireland throughout the centuries. This brief overview will begin with the early peoples’ connection to the earth starting over 5000 years ago. We will then explore the coming of Christianity and the overlap of the belief systems. Next we will touch on the religious conflicts and end with the new diversity within present day Ireland.
Enjoy this as a single session, or join us for the full 4-part series titled Spirits of the Emerald Isle: A Series on Celtic Spirituality.
Please register by February 3.
