Photos and story by

HILLSBORO, Ore. – The ancient Celtic religion lures many visitors each year to Stonehenge and other mysterious relics in far-away places. Now С»ÆÃ¨´«Ã½ offers a local opportunity to uncover this sacred history through the noted expertise of Frank Mills, who has a doctoral degree in clinical psychology. С»ÆÃ¨´«Ã½’s non-credit seminar, Introduction to Celtic Spirituality will lead students through the evolution of Celtic religion from primordial, to druidic, to Christian, to neo-Celtic revival movements. Mills is visiting from the East Coast to teach a seminar at Marylhurst University, in addition to the one at С»ÆÃ¨´«Ã½. As a published mythologist and theologian, his work has made him an authority on all things Celtic. He is currently working on a Hollywood-produced film series on Celtic myth. "We are fortunate to be able to offer the insight of Dr. Mills through this community education seminar,"says Amy Reardon, С»ÆÃ¨´«Ã½ Community Education manager. "His lectures will explore not only the history of Celticism, but touch on ways students can incorporate Celtic spirituality into their own personal growth." The two-day seminar will run from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday, April 24 and 25, in Room S236 of Century High School, 2000 S.W. 234th Ave. Cost is $21.
