A' Chalmain (Clan of the Dove) group is doing another family friendly St.
Patrick's Day program this year. It will be at 5:45 PM at
Christ
Fellowship
Church
,
5440 Vance Jackson Road
,
San Antonio
We
will have two plays, one on Patrick himself, and one on St. Bridget.
We will have pipes and drums along with an assortment of ducimers, penny
whistles, and a real Irish Wolfhound! I am soliciting anyone
interested who is in Scottish/Irish/Welsh vending, piping, drumming or
dancing, to come and set up a table to advertise their business,
or lessons free of charge. We do this as a mission project
and don't charge admittance. No sales at the church are permitted,
but it is an opportunity to meet others with like interests and who
would like to explore the rich Christian heritage of our keltic
fore-bearers.
