Book Description
Finbar the Dragon Defender of the Forest is a modern allegory in which corporations, religion, and values are questioned and examined. Set in the land of Telyn, where druid chieftains, who are like CEOs of powerful multinational corporations, are in charge of the government, a government where the corporate values of wealth, greed, and power have replaced the human values of love, kindness and mercy. And the national religion is based on psychology and not spirituality. Still, there is hope because one grove of druids led by Mog Ross and William the Harper follow the true Celtic values of a nature-based spirituality where all of nature is inspirited. From this grove of druids comes a young chieftain, Kevin Irvine, who with the help of Finbar the Dragon Defender of the Forest, fights back against corporate culture to return Telyn to a relationship with nature and Celtic spirituality.

My Nameday
Author: Helen McLoughlin
Publisher: Pickle Partners Publishing
ISBN: 1787208583
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 471
Book Description
MY NAMEDAY—COME FOR DESSERT, which was first published in 1962, is an invitation to parents to celebrate the family’s namedays. It contains the names, feasts, and symbols of our Blessed Mother and the saints, prayers of the liturgy, and appropriate desserts for the celebration of the sanctoral cycle of the Church year in the home. A nameday commemorates the feast of the saint whose name we received at baptism. To the Church’s mind, the day of the saint’s death is his real feastday, and that is the day usually assigned as his feast—his birthday into heaven. In some countries and in most religious orders it is customary to observe namedays instead of birthdays. On a child’s nameday, “My Nameday—Come for Dessert” is a popular way to entertain. It is economical, festive and meaningful, and permits the family to splurge on a fabulous dessert without inflicting lasting wounds on the budget. It can be a “little evening”—a time for a party and a prayer for the child in the company of his friends, a time for pleasant conversation for the grown-ups who accompany them.
