Episode Description

🏔️ The Saints: Adventures of Faith and Courage

🗺️ Brigid of Ireland - Episode Five: Mary of the Gael

Ireland. 470 A.D. When Brigid lays down her cloak, it spreads out miraculously to cover twelve square miles - enough to found the vast monastery of Kildare Abbey! Even the pagan king is awed. But Brigid’s mission is far from over. She is called to spread the light of Christ across a land still in the shadow of ancient pagan rites, false gods and superstition. And not everyone welcomes the light! .

🚦 Rating:  7+

Brigid is a charitable role model. She feeds the hungry and gives freely, even at personal cost. She courageously resists forced marriage and chooses consecration. Her faith deepens through prayer and trust in God’s providence, and she remains hopeful despite adversity, even from her own father.  

This series contains moments of danger and intensity, including raised voices. A mother dies after childbirth, a child is sent into slavery, and characters face threats of forced marriage and being sold. Illness, suffering, and references to execution are described, along with brief supernatural events and pagan practices.
