It emerged in Ireland and Britain during the Early Middle Ages and became widespread through high crosses erected by Irish missionaries. The design reflects a blend of Christianity and Celtic art, symbolizing faith, spirituality, and the intertwining of different cultural traditions. Additionally, the Celtic cross is often associated with various rituals and holds significant meaning in Celtic mythology and Fr Peyton- Rosary priest -Patrick’s Promise In 1927, at age 18, Patrick decided that he wanted to sell real estate in the United States. He already had family members in America: three sisters, three uncles and other relatives settled in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Acquiring their father’s consent was a difficult part of his journey. His father agreed that he and his brother, Tom, could make the trip to America and live with their sister with one condition: Go down on your knees and make me a promise here before the picture of the Sacred Heart. From now on there will be nobody but yourself to advise you and to decide for you. But your first responsibility will always be to save your soul, and so I want you to promise to be faithful to Our Lord in America. “Family that prays together stays together” got job at the Cathedral of Scranton as janitor went on to Notre Dame for studies | I agree to the Rules and Terms | No | 1 | JACK MCINTYRE | jmcin39681@aol.com | 624 PROSPECT AVE | SCRANTON | PA | 18505 | 5709834087 | 1/5/2026 20:04:43 | |||
