A celebration of St Columba's legacy

This day is the anniversary of the death of St Columba in 597. As part of the Highland 2007 celebrations, we invite all congregations from all denominations to take part in a demonstration of thanksgiving by walking for His Word and His messenger Columba, from Kinmylies Church of Scotland (click on poster to view more details), up the hill to the site of the fort on top of Craig Phadrig. We would like this to be a very public celebration and look to congregations to make the day one of joy with colourful banners, music, drama, and friendship. Following a time of praise and worship, it is hoped that people will enjoy their picnic lunches, and a time of Christian fellowship. This is an opportunity for people to ask their friends and neighbours to join in an event that allows us all to witness beyond the walls of our church buildings. Please encourage all your church organisations to contribute to making this a truly memorable occasion to celebrate the Bible and its contribution to Highland culture.
