St Columba's will hold a "Kirkin’ o’ the Tartans” during the 10:30 am service on Sunday, December 7. Everyone is invited to wear or bring their family tartan and we will bless these during Mass. We are coordinating once again with the Saint Andrews Society who will provide banners of tartans for our procession and, for our procession, a bagpiper will lead us to make our morning celebration joy-filled and festive! We'll end the morning with a reception to continue our celebration after Mass. “Kirk” is the Scottish word for “church.” The “Kirkin’ o’ the Tartans” is the presentation of a Scottish clan or family’s tartan at church for a blessing and is generally considered a rededication to God’s service. Join us for this wonderful tradition and celebration of God’s blessing.
