A reminder that our Autumn #VocationforJustice has recently been published offering resources to help us reflect on and respond to the 'cry of the Earth'. As #COP17 takes place this week, it’s a timely opportunity to explore how we can protect & restore #biodiversity.

HUGE crowds have attended a ceremony at Christ the King Cathedral in Mullingar to mark the conclusion of the Diocesan Phase of the Canonisation Cause of Fr. Willie Doyle SJ
Fr. Willie was a decorated World War I chaplain who served at the Battle of the Somme and was killed a year while administering the Last Rites to soldiers on the battlefield

Congratulations to @jshocds Fr Hogan, postulator of the diocesan stage in the cause for sainthood of Fr Willie Doyle, closed today at Christ the King Cathedral , Mullingar. Very well done to his excellent team all concerned with this graced endeavour.
All packed up in brown parcels, duly signed and sealed, the Cause now proceeds to Rome. Let us continue to support Fr Willie’s journey to sainthood with our prayers.

One of the great pleasures of my position is the opportunity to honour the great Irish men and women who lived in Korea before me. Fr P.J. McGlinchey brought hope and decent Irish country wisdom to the Island of Jeju. I honoured his life’s work with the Governor of Jeju.
