Saint of the Week
Saint Gobnait is one of the best
loved saints in West Cork but only traditions concerning her life survive. The
main part of her life was spent in Ballyvourney, Co Cork, where there has always
been a deep devotion to her, and which is a place of pilgrimage on February 11th
and on Pentecost. Her gifts of caring for and curing the sick have been a
significant part of her cult through the centuries. Happily her memorial
coincides with the World Day for the Sick.
