Urban Iona

"Urban Iona is a modern Celtic tale of healing and vision during and after the author's pilgrimage to Iona and Ireland. Upon his return, a dream takes shape: his church as an urban Celtic monastery, a gathering of pilgrims open to the world and serving those most in need. This is a powerful account of the author's search for his family's story, and the meaning and inspiration that story brought to his life and ministry. His pilgrimage to Ireland is chronicled not as a travelogue but as a deep, moving, often humorous reflection on the meaning of what he discovered. More important, it tells of his efforts to put into action the unique brand of Celtic spirituality he found there, which took the form of Brigid's Table, a ministry to prostitutes and other marginalized people in the inner city of Portland, Oregon. Includes suggestions for applying this spirituality to other parishes, other places, and other lives."--web.
