Comments from The Prayer Foundation ™ This is a truly beautiful film, both in its cinematography, and in its message. As Monk Bob commented, "The scenes of Ireland are so peaceful." Telling the story of the conversion of the Irish people by St. Patrick from paganism to Christianity, this excellent Documentary also provides an excellent summary of the history of monasticism from its very beginnings, and leading up to and including that of the Celtic missionary monks that evangelized Europe. _______________________________ And God Came to Ireland DVD ... is available through: _______________________________ See Also: _______________________________ Copyright © 2008 S.G.P.
