The picture on the banner is of the Abby at Iona – on the island of Iona off the coast of Scotland.

I visited there in August of 2012 with my Dad and brothers. Amazing place.

Several years ago, during a deployment to Iraq, I began reading about the Celtic approach to the Christian faith and found much there that resonated with me. There is a community at Iona that still practices that old way. I hope to do a proper spiritual pilgrimage when I am able to in the future. Amazing, amazing place.
