St. Brigid tended an eternal flame in Kildare, Ireland, while caring for people, animals, and the earth. And though she lived 1500 years ago, her story is seeing a huge resurgence in the 21st century.

Come on location with Katie to the Solas Bhride Centre in Kildare to meet Brigidine nun, Sister Rita Minehan. We promise a balm for your weary soul!

As a founding member member of the Solas Bhríde Centre team, she has been involved in the creation of several initiatives, including its pilgrimage programme. A second edition of her book, Rekindling the Flame: A Pilgrimage in the Footsteps of St Brigid of Kildare will be published in December 2022.
