Our Traditions

Celtic spirituality is especially an effective gentle and compassionate approach in helping others through the dark tide of fear, despair and isolation that life’s challenges often bring. The Celtic way of “being with others” allows the person to discover new depths of soul and to experience new levels of individuation and completeness.

Most of all, Celtic spirituality is a tradition of hope and resurrection. It allows one to see and experience that we are much more than our bodies; that we are eternal and that illness never has the last word in our lives.

The Anam Cara Community is currently a small group of committed individuals ministering and counseling those with serious illness, bereavement and general faith based counseling and spiritual direction. Finally, the goal for The Anam Cara Community is to train and educate others called to similar ministries. It will provide a place of formation to equip students to establish other Anam Cara Communities and ministries.
