  1. 130+ yr old #StBrigid #Catholic school in high income area of #SanFrancisco shutting without warning. #SF Arch Diocese was among the first #California dioceses to seek #bankruptcy protection after sex coverup #settlements and legal costs from multiple abuse victim cases, soon followed by regional #NorCal clergy officials in Santa Rosa, Oakland and Sacramento.

    The school’s closure comes as SF #ArchDiocese reaches $395m settlement with some 500 abuse victims, just weeks after #RomanCatholic Diocese of #Oakland announced it would shutter 13 #EastBay parishes, blaming financial ruin from hundreds of child #SexAbuse lawsuits against its own #Priests.

  4. Honoring an old tradition with new materials. 🌿✂️

    St. Brigid's Cross is one of Ireland's oldest symbols — traditionally woven from rushes on February 1st to mark Imbolc and welcome in the light of spring. I made mine from paper, and honestly? The folding is almost meditative.

    Four steps. Two hands. One very ancient symbol.

    Have you ever made one? 👇

  5. Ireland has two patron saints — one of whom we talk about much more than the other. Here's @TheConversationUS's story about St. Brigid, who shares her feast day, Feb. 1, with the start of spring.

  17. The weather forecast for today was great, so we visited Inchydoney Beach this afternoon. While it looks like the beach isn’t busy, cars were parked all the way from the hotel down to the public car park at the other end of the beach. It would be easy to think it was the middle of the summer, as there were so many vehicles!

    Yesterday was St. Brigid’s Day in Ireland, so it was nice to see St. Brigid’s Cross drawn on the sand, but I’d forgotten about IMBOLC. You can read more about it on Wikipedia.

  34. "In Kerry, as in many other parts of Ireland, the eve of St Brigid’s Day was just as important as the day itself. ‘Biddy Boys’ went from house to house with an effigy of the saint, a doll made from old rags or a butter churn dressed up. They would mask their faces with pieces of cloth, using straw or rush hats to keep the veils on."
