Friends of Edmund

Friends of Edmund is an ecumenical prayer service held monthly in Arrigoni. During each service, participants are invited to focus on a particular dimension of Edmund Rice's life and apply it to their own lives today. The format is flexible, but at least one student reflection and one reflection by a Brother, faculty, or staff member are offered each time. Past themes have included "Iona-in-Mission: In the Footsteps of Edmund," "Edmund and St. Columba," "Speaking Out for Eco-Justice," and "Edmund the Ethical Businessman." A supper follows the service immediately in Arrigoni to continue the conversation.
