Happy Scottish St Margaret's Day! :-)

Joining with our Scottish Clans (and Culdee church) in a time of remembrance

Wishing you a Happy Scottish remembrance day of Saint Margaret, from the Orthodox Church of the Culdees. Scottish festival held every November 16th,

Margretmas! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Margaret_of_Scotland.

She arguably accomplished more than any before her to conform the church of the Picts and Scots (Culdee and Columban) to the Roman church.

Before her, no one in Scotland was celebrating Sunday or following the Roman Calendar. Saturday Sabbath and Hebrew Feasts were the norm.

I quoted half a dozen mainstream history books that highlighted this topic in my book "Sabbath in the Orthodox Church East and West". Lately I was re-reading the book "The Early Scottish Church" by MacLaughlin (who I didn't quote in it), as found here: https://electricscotland.com/etexts/earlyscottishchurch.pdf and he (like the dozens of other great books on the topic said it quite well.) He dedicates a lot of pages just on how St Margaret influenced and changed the church, Saturday Sabbath is top of the list, and the calendar.
