Opening to the Divine Light is an opportunity to explore the Transfiguration of the Lord with the monks of Glenstal Abbey on Saturday 11th February from 10am – 5pm.
Jesus took three disciples to a place where they could be alone with him, and there he was transfigured before their eyes. The day is an invitation to come away and explore the Transfiguration: the voice that comes from heaven, the light that makes us divine. Participants will have an immersive encounter exploring the Gospel through the text, chant, art and liturgy.
Talks include:
* ‘The Transfiguration of the Lord in the Rule of Benedict’ by Luke Macnamara OSB;
* ‘Vox de nube – attuning to the Lord in Chant’ by Senan Furlong OSB;
* ‘Transfiguring Encounter in Mosaic and Icon’ by Luke Macnamara OSB;
* ‘Liturgy of the Transfiguration and Personal Transfiguration’ by Columba McCann OSB.
Lunch and refreshments will be provided. Suggest donation: €70. For further details contact events@glenstal.com or telephone 061 621005.
