Sermons - Paperback

by St Gall of Ireland (Author), D. P. Curtin (Translator)

St. Gall of Ireland was allegedly one of the twelve companions of Columba on his mission from Ireland to the continent. His origins are unknown, although he may have been a native of Germany. His missionary activity brought him to what is now Switzerland to the townland which now bears his name, St. Gallen. What follows is a collection of his sermons, all of which are relatively brief. They are short exegetical readings of the Christian scriptures and how they apply to the daily life of the Christians who abided in his small Swabish community.
