"Three years ago I traveled with my son David to the island of Iona. It just so happened that we were traveling with his wife to be. He didn’t know it then, but he hoped. Now he has named his firstborn daughter, Iona Wisdom Brown...
It was here in Iona that the seeds of the American Revolution were sown. The Christian faith on Iona held the thinking that made America possible. Joe Morecraft explained it this way, ~Scott Brown
“This is the most important place on earth, for you can trace the reformation and the founding of America to the followers of Columba. Their history belongs to us. Our roots as American Christians can be traced to this community in Iona.”
