Celebrating Saint Brigid of Kildare Parish's 30-Year History This Common Threads newsletter looks Celebrating back on our last 30 years as a parish. So Saint Brigid of Kildare many of you are new to St. Brigid of Kildare and don’t know the journey we traveled to Parish’s become the parish we are today. Our first 30-year History parish Mass back in 1987 was celebrated in a barn, but we now worship in a spectacular church that has become a landmark in our Dublin Community — the pride of its members and a highlight of the Columbus Diocese. Our Parish Education Center began as the dream of Bishop Griffin, Msgr. Enke and a handful of parishioners, and is now home to what is arguably the best preschool-eighth grade school and the leading diocesan religious education program. Our growth in membership (from 600 to 3,400 families) and in facilities has been impressive, but even more important is the ever-growing involvement, commit- ment and most recently hospitality shown by our parishioners. Our parishion- ers have never been content to rest on their laurels — we have continued to grow and excel. It is exciting to think about what our parish will look like over the next 30 years. We thank our dedicated parishioners who have worked so diligently in countless capacities and contributed their time, talent and treasure to build our St. Brigid of Kildare Parish into the strong Catholic community is has become. Please help us continue our 30-year legacy by bringing your talents to St. Brigid of Kildare. How will you use your time and talents to glorify God? In Ephesians 4:11-12, it tells us to reflect and give our talents, “And he gave some as apostles, others as prophets, others as evangelists, others as pastors and teachers, to equip the holy ones for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ.” This newsletter shares information about the ways our ministries and commit- tees impact our parish on a daily basis. Read this newsletter and find a way to become involved. Please join us in celebrating our 30th anniversary and find out more about our active parish family during Ministry Weekend after all five Masses on September 23 and 24, 2017. Our Parish, 1987 Our Parish, 2017 The Diocese of Columbus acquired 15 acres of land at 7179 Avery Road that was being used by the Dublin Stables as a horse boarding and riding facility. On the property was a farm house, large barn and stable. About 675 founding families, led by Msgr. Enke, began worshiping and meeting at nearby churches and schools. Our parish celebrated its first Mass on the new land in the stable. Surrounded by animals, parishioners sat on bales of hay for the service. The newly renovated stable was dedicated by Bishop Griffin as Our Lady of the Gael Chapel (currently Enke Hall). Saint Brigid of Kildare Church was dedicated on the Feast of the Assumption by Bishop Griffin. The church was a 20,000 square-foot facility with a seating capacity of 1,000. Saint Brigid of Kildare School, in the new Parish Education Center, opened its doors, welcoming 328 students in grades preschool through sixth. The former Lady of the Gael Chapel was renamed and blessed as Msgr. Paul Enke Hall in June 1998. Property across the street from the Church — 8.3 acres donated in 1999 by Bishop Griffin— was transformed into “Brigid’s Green” and dedicated on October 24, 2004. After 17 months of construction, the 15,000 square-foot Pastoral Center was dedicated. The building was designed for meeting, nursery, and support spaces (11,000 sq. feet) and administrative offices (4,000 sq. feet). The Robert D. Walter Family Gymnasium was dedicated after an addition was completed that added a state of the art gymnasium, bleacher seating for 600, and performance stage. The church expansion was blessed after a renovation that added 500 additional seats, expanded the “cry room,” updated the restroom facilities, and expanded the gathering area. Saint Brigid of Kildare School celebrated its 20th anniversary with an outdoor concert and picnic with all 560+ students. In the last 20 years, the school has more than doubled in growth and received two National Blue Ribbon School awards. EPIC Middle School Youth Group is forming now for 2017-2018! Be a part of St. Brigid of Kildare’s growing Middle School Youth Group.

At school, you are this person. At home, you are that person. On your team, you are another person. At church, you are someone else. In prayer, you are this way. In friendships, you are that way. But God calls us to wholeness. We are called to be entirely His, always. Imagine what life could be if we always remembered that we are loved and known by God and allowed that to guide us. This coming year, our ministry focus will be Identity Revealed. We will explore our identity in Christ, what it means to be known and loved by God, and how that can transform our lives – if we allow it. Join us this coming school year as we learn and grow through discussion, scripture, theology of the body, guest speakers, sports, service, prayer, and music in an effort to follow Christ, whole- heartedly. Parent Information Gathering: Sunday, August 27, 7-8 PM HS Youth Ministry Kick-Off:Thursday, September 7, 2017, 7:30-9 PM Winter Retreat: February 10-11, 2018 Components of this year’s High School Youth Ministry will include the following (see our webpage for full details): • God Revealed Series (September 7, 14, 21, & 28) • YOU: Life, Love, & Theology of the Body Series, part 1 (October 5, 12, 19, 26, November 2, & 9) • Advent Series (November 30, December 7, 14, & 21) • YOU: Life, Love, & Theology of the Body Series, part 2 (January 4, 11, 18, 25, February 1 & 8) • Identity Revealed Winter Retreat (February 10-11, 2018) • Lenten Series (February 15, 22, March 1, 8, 15, & 22) • Christ Series (April 5, 12, 19, 26, & May 3 ) Have You Heard of Our New Program with Syntero — Parishioners Helping Parishioners?

Thanks to the generous funding from the City of Dublin, Syntero's senior supportive services have now been expanded and are available to all Saint Brigid of Kildare parishioners through our Parishioners Helping Parishioners program. There is no charge for these services. Young Adult Ministry, typically for young adults ages 19-35, will meet throughout the year for faith formation, service opportunities, and social gatherings.

  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

  • A Cloud of Witnesses in the Orthodox West
    A Cloud of Witnesses in the Orthodox West An Introduction to the Saints of the Orthodox Church in the West The Very Rev’d Nicholas R. Alford St. Gregory Orthodox Church Washington, DC Towards the end of the Sermon on the Mount, while warning of false prophets to come, our Lord says “You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.” Ultimately the answer to the question of whether the Western Rite is Orthodox or not is answered by how if affects the lives of the men, women and children who live out their relationship with God in this manner. Does the Western Rite, like the Eastern Rite, lead people to become holy, to grow in their relationship with God? Is the Western Rite an expression of authentic Christianity that encourages people to become more like Christ? In answer to these questions we should look at the lives of some of the “cloud of witnesses” as the holy ones are called in the Epistle to the Hebrews. By their fruit you will know them. As we look at the expansion of Christianity into the West, we must start with what is now Italy. Rome, of course, was the capitol of the empire and was generally considered to 1 be the center of the world at the time. Jews had been living in Rome for nearly two hundred years before the birth of Christ. We know this because the Praetor Gnaeus Cornelius Hispanus tried to compel them to return to their homeland in 139BC.

  • The Search for San Ffraid
    The Search for San Ffraid ‘A thesis submitted to the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in the fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts’ 2012 Jeanne Mehan 1 Abstract The Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, called in Ireland and Scotland St Brigid (also called Bride, Ffraid, Bhríde, Bridget, and Birgitta) have not previously been documented. This Irish saint is said to have traveled to Wales, but the Welsh evidence comprises a single fifteenth-century Welsh poem by Iorwerth Fynglwyd; numerous geographical dedications, including nearly two dozen churches; and references in the arts, literature, and histories. This dissertation for the first time gathers together in one place the Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, integrating the separate pieces to reveal a more focused image of a saint of obvious importance in Wales. As part of this discussion, the dissertation addresses questions about the relationship, if any, of San Ffraid, St Brigid of Kildare, and St Birgitta of Sweden; the likelihood of one San Ffraid in the south and another in the north; and the inclusion of the goddess Brigid in the portrait of San Ffraid. 2 Contents ABSTRACT ........................................................................................................................ 2 CONTENTS........................................................................................................................ 3 FIGURES ...........................................................................................................................

  • Hope Faith Love
    As you know, the four-leaf clover has become a common symbol of St. Patrick’s Day. Because four-leaf clovers are so rare — you have about a 1-in-5000 chance of finding one1 — they’re often associated with luck. But in truth, each leaf represents something special: luck, yes, but also hope, faith, and love. The reason we mention this is because, over the years, we’ve learned that the history of St. Patrick’s Day represents each of these attributes, too. Now, that might seem pretty deep for a day where we all pinch each other for not wearing green. But it’s true! To illustrate how, let’s take each clover leaf one at a time, starting with… Hope Did you know that, in an alternate universe, we might all be wearing blue on St. Patrick’s Day? While “kelly green” is the most popular symbol associated with the day, it didn’t used to be that way. Saint Patrick himself is thought to have worn blue for much of his life, and the Order of St. Patrick, a fraternity of knights founded in the 17th century, adopted the color, too. So why the color green? Because green was the color of those who sought Irish independence. Beginning in that same century, more and more Irish people began hoping that one day, they would have their own country, free of dominion under a foreign crown. These patriots increasingly wore green as a symbol of Irish identity and culture. It would take centuries for independence to happen, but generation upon generation passed down the secret hope that one day, Ireland would be counted among the free nations of the world.

  • Practicing Love of God in Medieval Jerusalem, Gaul and Saxony
    he collection of essays presented in “Devotional Cross-Roads: Practicing Love of God in Medieval Gaul, Jerusalem, and Saxony” investigates test case witnesses of TChristian devotion and patronage from Late Antiquity to the Late Middle Ages, set in and between the Eastern and Western Mediterranean, as well as Gaul and the regions north of the Alps. Devotional practice and love of God refer to people – mostly from the lay and religious elite –, ideas, copies of texts, images, and material objects, such as relics and reliquaries. The wide geographic borders and time span are used here to illustrate a broad picture composed around questions of worship, identity, reli- gious affiliation and gender. Among the diversity of cases, the studies presented in this volume exemplify recurring themes, which occupied the Christian believer, such as the veneration of the Cross, translation of architecture, pilgrimage and patronage, emergence of iconography and devotional patterns. These essays are representing the research results of the project “Practicing Love of God: Comparing Women’s and Men’s Practice in Medieval Saxony” guided by the art historian Galit Noga-Banai, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and the histori- an Hedwig Röckelein, Georg-August-University Göttingen.
