  • Hidden Ireland Tours
    Con Moriarty’s Hidden Ireland Tours Ireland - a Fall pilgrimage (Oct 16th-24th 2017) A special “Kanuga-journey” in Ireland aimed at renewal of mind, body and spirit through powerful connections with nature, in exploring rich canons of heritage and myth and through learning in the company of great teachers. Dingle Dublin Shannon Killarney Killarney Ballymaloe Cork Con Moriarty’s Hidden Ireland Tours, Gap of Dunloe, Killarney, Co. Kerry, Ireland Tel (US Office): 251 478 7519 • Contact: Binky Oswalt • Email: [email protected] • www.hiddenirelandtours.com An Invitation... Dear Kanuga family, You know the amazing thin place that Kanuga is. A place of natural beauty, we connect to God and nature in a unique way on the hallowed ground that Bishop Finlay carved out of the North Carolina mountains way back in 1928. It is a place of constant renewal for all of us. Sometimes, we are called to other places to find a deeper connection to the places we love. For me, Ireland has been that place. There, walking sacred paths shared by pilgrims for millennia, I find myself challenged to be a stronger, truer person, indeed the person that God knit together from the foundations of the earth as a beloved child. Therefore, my wife Page and I want to share this amazing place with you on pilgrimage in October 2017. Joining other members of the Kanuga family, a small group of no more than 25 of us will embark to a holy isle to discover deeper connections to God, creation, and one another. By challenging ourselves in the constantly changing landscape of the Celts, we will discover a deeply spiritual journey that will help us be better stewards of all that Kanuga has taught us.
