Earlier this month, we welcomed American author Michael Pearson who joined us along with his wife Jo-Ellen and sister-in-law Christine on our Celtic Pilgrim Experience along St Declan's Way. It was memorable in every way on and off the trail. So much so, I had to read his latest book 'The Road to Dungannon'. Wanted to sum up in a short few words why this book is such a compelling read. Thank you Mike for sharing the path with us and for inspiring us on our way...

Michael Pearson’s ‘The Road to Dungannon’ offers a unique gateway into the story of Ireland and its people. A natural and gifted storyteller, Pearson's search for ‘the ghost’ of his late Grandfather leads the reader on an odyssey of sorts deep into the soul of our Irish identity. His personal journey becomes a springboard for a collective quest to make sense out of all that has shaped who we have become today.

Pearson’s magic lies in seamlessly weaving literary threads together into a panorama of colour and life to re-claim the oft’ tarnished landscape of a once persecuted people. ‘The Road to Dungannon’ leads the reader on a pathway of discovery where the muses of old and now nod us deeper into our shared story to a place where we can re-imagine who we really are. At once poignant and uplifting, this book lights up the shaded places so we too can find our way home.

Wherever you are, make the space to read this wee gem. It will linger long after the last page is turned and leave you more sure of your bearings for the journey ahead. (Dr Phil Brennan) 📖🧡

We've passed a significant milestone this month having led our 25th group along St Declan's Way. Each group has brought their own energy and magic. They have guided us on our way. Enjoy the read and feel free to share. Phil and Elaine. 🙏🌀🫶

This October we reached a milestone of sorts… our 25th group arrived safely onto the beach in Ardmore after walking St Declan’s Way with us. We have very much taken the circuitous route to arrive at where we are now. When we first led groups along this ancient pilgrim path, we walked all 115 kil...

Letter from a Celtic Soul. Enjoy the read. Phil and Elaine ✨️🌀🌅

Whatever your fate is, whatever the hell happens, you say, ‘this is what I need’. It may look like a wreck, but go at it as though it were an opportunity, a challenge. If you bring love to that moment, not discouragement, you will find the strength is there. Any disaster you can survive is...
