8th March 2009 - St Piran at Perranporth
The people of Perranzabuloe celebrate St Piran each year on the Sunday closest to St Pirans day.
This year Colin Retallick took on the role as St Piran.
carrying the Cornish flag proud.
St Piran's message was spoken at the cross.
Dynnargh onen hag oll. Welcome one and all
I am Piran, Piran of Kernow. I am Piran
And you are Piran. We who meet today are all one.
At this cross, we stand at a spirtiual place, bounded by sea, hovering between earth and heaven.
This cross symbolises our love of Kernow.
The three holesrepresent peace, unity and distinctiveness.
The blocked hole remembers those who have gone before us.
Here today , we are united. Linked as a people, as a nation, with a common cause to protect and celebrate Kernow.
When we leave this place, we musttake with us these same vows.
Kerensa ha cres rag onen hag oll.
Peace and love for one and all.
Kernow Bys Vykken!
