January

January meeting of the Lawton Celtic Club. January 19,2017



Well, yesterday,  John Kennedy and I were the attendees at the January meeting of the Celtic Club.    Guess January wasn't a good month. 
He and I had a nice meeting discussing St. Brigid of Kildare.    I shared the Brigid Cross, the Brigid Prayer and the Brat Bhride
St. Brigid’s Cloak was a piece of cloth called the Brat-Bhríde which was used for healing and protection during the year.

The Brat-Bhríde was the size of a handkerchief. It was left outside the house on night of the 31st of January, by the people who lived there. It was hoped that St. Brigid would bless the Brat-Bhríde as she passed by during the night.

The following morning the cloak was taken into the house to be used for healing. The cloak was also placed on the head of a person who had a headache.
Next month we can try again.   The Center for Creative Living is expecting us again at about 2PM on February 12.   Patty Dawes is planning on giving her talk on the Irish in Oklahoma at that time.
Hope we are all healed and back to able to come again:)
