North Wales Camino Pererin to Holy Bardsey Island Online Bible Study for Women

Pererin - St Cadfan Way 
The second North Wales Camino to Holy Bardsey Island , the first one starts at Holywell.

This one traces the footsteps of Saint Cadfan thought to have founded a church in Tywyn and then moved to create a monastery for contemplative monks on the holy isle of Bardsey on the LLyn peninsular 

This section of the pilgrimage road has a steep climb from Saint Mary's and St Egryns  church in Llanegryn starting with a very narrow path alongside the river bank behind the church across to the farmers field and through his farm buildings which kindly have been given as access with a permissive footpath. Eventually is leads right on top of a mountain which overlooks the se with a fabulous range of views where the mountains meet the sea. 

Through the cow fields and in search of a tiny ancient church that nestles right down below on the furthest edge of the sea cliff. Arriving early enough is recommended as there is no illumination other than daylight at Old Llangelynnin Church, Llwyngwril. There is an interesting medieval style wall painting of a skeleton. I will share some pictures in the " Pilgrim on HolyGround " travel bible journal.

Here I would like to focus on bible studies and how they arise for me as I walk along

How to Bible Study on a pilgrimage road, in a non-traditional way 

  • setting my intention and internally pausing and removing my ideas of purpose and destination

  • removing my backpack, stretching and standing on the mountain ridge, breathing deeply and slowly doing a 360 degree turn taking in all the vistas . It is raining, there is a storm coming yet right now all that captures my attention is this fire red tree , a hawthorn bush I believe

  • There are many sheep on this section of the Pererin St Cadfan way pilgrimage trail, but the spot of red, bright red, firing red on the bush makes me pause, then recognise the symbols that have drawn my attention. There is a bush, a fire red burning of sorts, there is a mountain and I am smiling and letting the impressions sink in as I look down at my heavy walking boot " sandals".

  • Internally I suspend all other action, use my inner seeing to "remove my sandals" and sink into deep appreciation for GOD's holy ground on which I find myself invited into conversation

What is a pilgrimage Road ? 

Contemplating Exodus 3 - 4 -5 


The Space between the natural and the divine 

Spiritual distance , GOD fully and completely HOLY and DIVINE , People fully natural and imperfect

Willingness to take off my sandals, my natural shoes , remove the proverbial eternal layers, external things , standing unmasked when approaching holy ground.
