'Reclaiming the Sealskin' is a book of meditations inspired by the Celtic legend of the selkie, a mythical seal-like creature who could also live on land in human form but sometimes became trapped because a human stole its sealskin. The book consists of 70 contemplations on the natural world and on some human-made objects.
This book focuses on the renewal (or rekindling) of cultural identity, especially in populations previously considered 'extinct'. At the same time, Hendry sets out to explain the importance of ensuring the survival of these cultures. By drawing a fine and textured picture of these cultures, Hendry illuminates extraordinary diversity that was, at one point, seriously endangered, and explains why it should matter in today's world.
A six-day cycle of prayer in the Celtic tradition, incorporating the daily themes used in Iona Abbey: justice and peace, prayer for healing, care for the earth, commitment to Christ, the communion of heaven and earth, and welcome and hospitality.
This inspiring anthology of liturgies and worship resources, reflecting the life and witness of the Iona Community, originally published in 1996, is intended to encourage creativity in worship
This book will take you on a journey to awaken a spiritual relationship with the seal, familiarizing you with the seal's anima as well as its history with the Gaelic ancestors of the British Isles. The Clan of the Seal on North Uist, and the traditional oral storytellers, were the transmitters and custodians of folklore, who told tales about the kindly selchie and revered seals as sacred, akin to their own family. The gentle seal will help reclaim what is lost within as we remember our Celtic heritage and identity in this fragile world. Seal lore teaches valuable lessons in integrity and kindness, and ignites our imagination, leading us to the seal's inner landscape of presence and peace - inevitably towards our own inner peace. This is the magic of the seal; not lost, but found.
The 'Our Father' is often repeated verbatim but rarely prayed as a pattern. However, using it as a framework can let it blossom into our whole life. This book takes a holistic approach to praying, encouraging us to take seriously that Christ gave us this prayer and challenging us to weave it into our lives more fully. Find here creative ideas for prayer groups, retreats and worship as well as for devotional use by individuals: praying with the body, with organisers, scrapbooks, stones, cards, labyrinths, lifestyles and liturgies. Then share your own discoveries on the book's website.

That revelation is thanks to the boy with the hungry eyes. The only one she can trust now. And then there’s the stranger, the shadow who seems to be everywhere Lorelei is.
