Produktinformationen "Saint Kevin of Glendalough"
In sixth-century Ireland, the memory of the great missionary Saint Patrick was strong, but so was the influence of the old pagan religion. There was still much work to be done to spread the Christian faith. This book tells the story of one of the greatest saints of the Emerald Isle after Patrick, Saint Kevin, whose monastery at Glendalough was a beacon of light for eight hundred years. Saint Kevin worked miracles, communed with animals, and inspired thousands to leave everything to follow Christ. His love of God and neighbor helped root the Christian faith deep into the hearts of the Irish people. Author Kevin McKenzie spent seven years researching the life of Saint Kevin, visiting the places where he lived and translating the thousand-year-old Latin biography of the saint into English. Using his research and travels, McKenzie has produced a lively portrait of Saint Kevin that will inspire and delight readers ages nine and up.
