From Colorado-
Saints Patrick, Aidan and Hilda were most influential before the 9th century, but their lives have inspired deep traditions at one Boulder church.
To honor and explore Celtic Christianity`s history and influence, St. Aidan`s Episcopal Church will host the Celtic Conversations next weekend.
The conference will include Celtic-style worship, small group discussions and several lectures led by retired CU professor Doug Burger. The Community of Aidan and Hilda, an international Celtic Christian order, will sponsor the event.
The historical and spiritual ideas behind Celtic Christianity have a deep impact on Saint Aidan`s Church. The church`s namesake is a revered 7th century Celtic saint said to have won over converts with his ability to talk casually and politely with people in the Northumbrian villages he visited.
Reverend Mary Kate Rejouis said the church is also named after St. Aidan because of his commitment to teaching. St. Aidan`s church is home to Canterbury Colorado, the Episcopal ministry for CU.
