Poetry and Prayer

As Advent begins, join the Wild Goose Resource Group for an online session with Pádraig Ó Tuama where we will be looking at poems that function as prayers. Strange prayers, for sure, some of them asking for attention, some of them telling God what God needs to know, some remaking worlds, some ending worlds.

Pádraig Ó Tuama is a poet and a long time friend of the Wild Goose Resource Group and the Iona Community. A former leader of Corrymeela, he works in projects of poetry, theology and conflict resolution. He presents the Poetry Unbound podcast and has two new books — 44 Poems on Being with Each Other; and Kitchen Hymns — coming in early 2025.
