Prayer Needs Ireland’s ancient Celtic Church and its missionaries took the gospel to many nations in Europe 1,500 years ago. Then followed centuries of suffering, oppression, violence and bloodshed at the hands of the Vikings and the British. Sadly the long conflict has, in the eyes of the world, been portrayed as religious in origin. Pray that the wounds and divisions in Irish society might be healed and the whole of Ireland be at peace and that Ireland’s ancient spiritual heritage might be restored for the blessing of the world. | |
