From Croke Park to Glencairn
In ‘From Croke Park to Glencairn’ Sr Lily Scullion recounts her life story which began on a small farm in Ahoghill Co. Antrim and ended up in a Cistercian Monastery in Co Waterford, where she has been a beloved member of the community for more than 40 years. In this fascinating autobiography Sr. Lily writes about her journey into youth work in Newry and Belfast during ‘The Troubles’ and her winning of the coveted All-Ireland camogie medal with her native Antrim in Croke Park in 1967. It is a story of how the grace of God can take us in the most unexpected of directions, once we are open to its stirrings.
