Finbarr 'Barry' – Ireland - 7th Century

Finbarr means the “fair headed one”. It is a name revered in County Cork, Ireland. Finbarr must have had a sunshine Idea of God too. He chose Gougane Barra as a place of solitude. It is an idyllic island. The gentle water lapping the Shore soothes the heart.  The beauty of mountain,trees, and passing clouds ,delight the eye.  Its a wedding day in the Small church beside the lake shore.  I think that Finbarr saw Gods world and God’s people as a fantastic wedding Celebration.
