I have driven by this cemetery many times, stopped today to take a break. Of course I had to pull up my app, no caches?! I sat here and was wondering how this cemetery got it’s name, since I am not catholic and know nothing about the saints. St. Brigid was from Ireland and a very interesting story if you care to google her. I did find a nice poem that I felt was appropriate...
Saint Brigid Hearth Keeper Prayer
Brigid of the Mantle, encompass us,
Lady of the Lambs, protect us,
Keeper of the Hearth, kindle us.
Beneath your mantle, gather us,
And restore us to memory.
Mothers of our mother, Foremothers strong.
Guide our hands in yours,
Remind us how to kindle the hearth.
To keep it bright, to preserve the flame.
Your hands upon ours, Our hands within yours,
To kindle the light, Both day and night.
The Mantle of Brigid about us,
The Memory of Brigid within us,
The Protection of Brigid keeping us
From harm, from ignorance, from heartlessness.
This day and night,
From dawn till dark, From dark till dawn.
