The Holy Island of Lindisfarne is often called "the holiest place in
England" because of all the saints who have lived there. St. Aidan and
St. Cuthbert, two popular Celtic saints, are buried there. For more
than 1,300 years pilgrims have made their way to this island, which
now hosts half a million visitors a year. A Holy Island Prayer Book,
with prayers for morning, midday, and night, follows the rhythms and
seasons of the natural and Christian year as observed on Holy Island.
More contemplative than the earthy spirituality of communities such as
Iona, each day of the week has a special theme: Sunday: Resurrection
and renewal Monday: Creation Tuesday: incarnation and peace Wednesday:
The Holy Spirit in mission and healing Thursday: Community and unity
Friday: With broken people at the Cross Saturday: Leisure (morning)
and the Saints (night) A Holy Island Prayer Book includes prayers by
popular author David Adam, and is the perfect companion for anyone who
has visited Holy Island, or those who are there in spirit.
