    The Boy Who Started Celtic

    THIS BOOK is the story of a boy, a calf and one of
    the biggest football clubs in the world.
    It is also a story of how one person can change
    many people’s lives.
    All great journeys begin with a single step. As a
    boy, Brother Walfrid did not know he was starting
    a great journey when he sold a calf at County
    Sligo’s Ballymote Fair and took the boat to
    Scotland.
    Every day, people are starting great journeys and
    they don’t even know it. They are just trying, like
    Walfrid, to make people’s lives better by helping
    others who are not as fortunate as them. Walfrid
    helped people and started one of the world’s most
    well-known football clubs.
    Perhaps readers of Brother Walfrid’s story may
    start a great journey of their own one day?
