It's good to know that the Facebook-Resisters are out there and reading this blog.<br /><br />Madpriest, I didn't know that Brigid was such a party girl. Thanks for highlighting this post on your blog. <br /><br />Audrey, the icon really is wonderful, isn't it? I love the flames on the foreheads of these brilliant women.Kittredge Cherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02617858676733169316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29680163.post-6066542165277189702011-02-05T19:44:30.090-08:002011-02-05T19:44:30.090-08:00Dar-lay-dock is the pronounciation!Dar-lay-dock is the pronounciation!Audreynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29680163.post-30427779418768131462011-02-05T07:34:19.173-08:002011-02-05T07:34:19.173-08:00Loved the story of Brigid... we have this icon in ...Loved the story of Brigid... we have this icon in our home!

I added a couple of new links, one of them based on the wonderful comments from last year.<br /><br />Overall we aren't getting as many comments as we used to here at the Jesus in Love Blog, but more people are commenting on the posts at my Facebook page. Today several people who weren't part of the dialog last year commented and/or "liked" this St. Brigid post on my Facebook page. The way that people communicate keeps changing with the Internet, but stories like St. Brigid continues to pass from person-to-person, spreading inspiration. I'm honored to be part of the process.Kittredge Cherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02617858676733169316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29680163.post-8523704152756674412011-02-01T11:14:17.022-08:002011-02-01T11:14:17.022-08:00Goodness gracious, has it been an entire year?

It is indeed a wonderful post, and reminds me again of how splendid the "Gay Saints" series continues to be. Thanks for keeping it going, and bringing back these exceptional stories for all of us.Trudiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17866513608442388870noreply@blogger.com
