Irish Celtic Christianity with a focus on Kells – Inspiration for today

Celtic Cross in KellsKells was the seat of the high kings of Ireland, and later, the location of the thriving Columban abbey, established in the 9th century. We have many precious Christian artifacts today from the Book of Kells to the ancient high crosses, thanks to St. Colmcille and to his monks who lived and worshipped in community there for a few centuries.

Paddy Monaghan, one of the founders of the Evangelical Catholic Initiative, recently felt led by the Holy Spirit to write a Pamphlet about Irish Celtic Christianity with a focus on Kells.

In this pamphlet, Paddy, tells the inspirational history of this town in the context of Ireland’s Christian history. He also shares his testimony linking it to St. Colmcille and gives an invitation to readers to accept Jesus as Lord and Saviour.

It is produced with the support and encouragement of the clergy in Kells.  The Catholic church there has taken 500 Pamphlets, the Anglican Church 500 and Elim Pentecostal took 500.  In addition, Meath Tourism took 500 of them.  Please keep this initiative in prayer so we pay push back against the increasing trend to paganise our Celtic Spiritual heritage.

You can find the electronic .pdf version of the pamphlet on our Resources page or by clicking on the image of the Celtic cross.
