Scenes from a Celtic pilgrimage (This page is still under construction, so visit again)

A garden for the peace of the soul

We Southerners had to learn quickly that a "yard" is something made of concrete while a garden is anything you grow, including the lawn. At the Nortumbria  Community, there is space to walk and meditate on the connection between the natural cycle of growth and our own souls.

Walls to set limits

We often need to examine the walls in our lives. Those boundaries sometimes are there for a good reason, to protect us, to show us our limitations, to let us know when we go beyond where we normally stay. Of course, we need to take a hike beyond them every once in a while.

 St. Cuthbert's Island, a place of prayer

At low tide, one can walk from Lindisfarne to St. Cuthbert's Island, a place made holy by St. Cuthbert's times of prayer there. There you watch for the grey seals or sing to them and hope they will respond by coming closer. Or you can pray. If you are there when the tide comes in, just settle down and pray for the night (all night I think).
