The Story of Saint Kentigern, who was also known as Mungo
The city of Glasgow is celebrating it's 850th birthday this year. But Glasgow's roots go back even farther than it becoming a Burgh in 1175.
In the late 6th Century, a Christian community began to gather around the monastic cell build for St Mungo by King Rhiderch Hael.
Mungo called them his 'dear family' - clas-gu - and so the city of Glasgow, with Mungo and his mother as patron saints, was born.
To help us celebrate, we have a story in the style of Godly Play for Saint Mungo, who is also know as Saint Kentigern.
