2010 Celtic Mission and Pilgrimage – August 1-14, 2010
Overtoun House and Iona
(Registration due April 1, 2010)
Join as we travel to Scotland to continue our work with Overtoun House. Located just outside Glasgow, Overtoun House is an “A” listed Scottish Baronial Building. The 46,000 square foot structure, built in 1862, provides space for the Christian Centre for Hope and Healing, a ministry led by missionaries Bob and Melissa Hill. Our group will work primarily on the construction of the women’s residential floor. The six en-suite rooms on this floor, three of which have been completed, will provide residential care for expectant teenage mothers with nowhere to go and short term care for mothers in crisis.
After our work is completed, we will journey to the Holy Isle of Iona for a season of prayer and spiritual renewal. One of the most beloved centers for spiritual pilgrimage in the world, Iona has been called a “thin place, where only a tissue paper separates the spiritual from the material.” During our sojourn we will worship with fellow pilgrims from around the world in the majestic Iona Abbey, walk the cobbled roads, view the ancient ruins and high crosses, and enjoy times of fellowship and solitude.
Space is limited to 23 participants. The cost of the trip is estimated at $2,000. A $100 non-refundable deposit is due on April 1, 2010. For more information please see the 2010 Celtic Mission and Pilgrimage links below:
