Dolores will be hosting a five day imram (wonder voyage) to the blessed island of Iona, Scotland. Iona has been regarded as sacred since pre-Christian times and has been a place of pilgrimage for thousands of years. The spiritual presence of this island allows for a really deep experience which facilitates a growth in awareness and holiness.

During our sacred pilgrimage on Iona we will:

• Seek the presence of the Divine in the natural world.
• Walk to the many wonderful sacred places on the island: west for patience, south for clarity, north for healing and east for grace.
• Explore many aspects of the Celtic spiritual tradition in talks, reflective exercises and sharing circles.
• Sing chants from ancient Celtic Ceile De Tradition.
• Join with the Iona Community for a service at the famous Abbey.
• Spend time in the St. Michaels and St. Oran’s chapel within the Abbey.
• Visit the ruins of the famous Nunnery.
• Spend quiet time each day for your own inner process.
• Sit in circle with like minded pilgrims.
• Nourish and replenish our souls.
