Good and generous God,
as Christian people gathered
at this keeill long ago,
so we come together for worship.
Help us, like them,
to praise the Creator God,
to share the Christian faith
and to become more Christ-like
as time goes by.
We make this prayer in the name of Jesus,
our Saviour and Lord.
AMEN

WELCOME and THANK YOU for visiting our website - the information centre for PRAYING THE KEEILLS.

The theme for PRAYING THE KEEILLS week 2012 is SACRED SPACE and we shall be exploring this theme as we walk, explore sacred sites, learn about our Celtic heritage and enjoy fun and fellowship together.

For the seventh successive year, we have planned a variety of events across the island. For those with lots of energy, there are two all-day walks, one in the West (The Three Cathedrals walk) and one in the North around Maughold, which will take in some glorious countryside and scenery, as well as some fascinating historical and sacred places. We have an evening coach trip, when we plan to visit some of the important Celtic crosses in Bride and Lezayre. There’s an afternoon walk to Old Lonan Church, and we’re sure that the torchlight procession and supper in Port St Mary will prove popular with families and young adults.

The ancient keeill sites are often found in areas of particular natural beauty and in such surroundings it is a common experience to sense something of the presence of God. Why not set aside some time to join in this special week?
