Prayers are with all caught up in the very tragic incident in Carlow last evening, while thinking of the deceased and his family, also the young girl injured during the incident and her family and the many who were working or shopping at the time, may the Lord be their consolation and hope @KANDLEi @CatholicNewsIRL

Columban missionaries welcome Pope Leo XIV

[Turas Columbanus Via Columbani @ColumbanusJ]

As pilgrims on the journey we rejoice in the election of a fellow missionary and pilgrim Cardenal Robert Prevost as Pope Leo XIV . In the footsteps of St . Columbanus and St. Augustine we pray that the Spirit of the Living God fall afresh in him as Vicar of Christ .

[Turas Columbanus Via Columbani @ColumbanusJ]

Pope Francis has passed the threshold of death and has passed into Eternal Life .. a pilgrim for Christ who has walked gently on the exploited earth, heard the cry of the poor and reached out to the marginalised. Rest in peace pilgrim of Christ
