Iona Community, Scotland

Haverford Religion major Margaret Ernst BMC ’11 will be working at the Iona Community, an ecumenical organization in the Inner Hebrides, Scotland. The community is located on Iona, where the Irish monk Columba introduced Christianity to Scotland in the 500s and which was central to Celtic spirituality before then. Today the Iona Community engages in work for peace, social justice, and the renewal of worship. She will be helping lead the community’s children’s program from June 25th to September 4th.
