    Thanks so much for sharing! I join you as fellow pilgrim. It is a lovely place to work for a couple of months voluntarily, for the general reasons as you say, Christian history. I would describe the working atmosphere as "fun, and happy". Unforgettable for the best possible reasons

    I went there a couple of times over 30 years ago now, and stayed a few days each time, not in the community but independently. It was an extraordinary experience, quite transformative, I hope one day to go back.

      I went to Jerusalem again not long after this and whilst it was great to film and show my family around, Iona??? Just in a league of its own. Paul 👌

    Lovely area for sure! Quite the history with those finds! Give me a little place there and the provisions I need and I think I could make that place home. Looks like there could be some very quiet and peaceful places found around! Thanks for sharing...Bruce and Otis

      Hi Bruce and Otis! It’s an incredible place with a really special feeling. There are a few places there that if you got the chance to buy! But absolutely was on my bucket list and there will be another film from here but it will be the pop film, just full of views only! Hope all well Paul

    Thank you for that. I went to Iona because I am often called IONA. People can't pronounce my name, ILONA, and I joke that I am not a Scottish island. I call it my island. 😆

      Hi Mark thank you! I was nervous putting in some vocals this way for the first time so much appreciated. I quietly did listen to the tours going through and Vikings were not mentioned. The narrative at present is definitely focused on the here and now. Paul

    It was actually 3000 souls who perished during the skirmish re: the manuscripts. He vowed to win 3001 souls to YAH’USHA HA’MASHIACH. THE British Isles is where the TRUE CHRISTIAN CHURCH FLOURISHED after the death and resurrection of YAH’USHA, NOT Rome. The EARLY CHRISTIANS were there long BEFORE the Romans.

    • @pauljones401
      @pauljones401  6 місяців тому

      Now the figure of souls I actually got from a textbook not Google but….. it was many souls. Having traveled to Jerusalem 3 times what is very clear is this. The island does feel way older as a Christian place of worship than anywhere I’ve ever been. It’s feels literally in the island itself. If you get the chance to visit I hope you can experience this too.
