Throughout many of my articles, I have provided resources for individuals to prayerfully engage in a Gaelic language of one’s choosing. Despite the amount of time spent on this endeavor, I have not articulated a reason as to why one should pray in Gaelic. Given the cultural climate and the general view of language as a tool for social mobility, I feel that it is important to demonstrate the importance of praying in one’s ancestral language. While the position of those who find learning any language difficult, due to disabilities caused by birth or injury, I understand and do hope that you may learn something from this article. For those who can and refuse to learn for one reason or another, I hope that the message contained herein will inspire you to open your mind to pray alongside your ancestors in one voice.
Well said
