Year of Prayer, Listening and Discernment

Last September, Bishop Fintan invited us to join with him in a Year of Prayer, Listening, and Discernment across the diocese.

During the year, following our information meetings, there was a series of gatherings in each of the 16 Families of
Parishes, with religious communities, the new Irish communities as well as engagement with our school communities.

The gatherings focused on the themes of:

• Baptism
• Sunday Eucharist
• Review of the Family of Parishes

These gatherings gave us an emerging sense of what God is calling us to do, what we should strive for, and what we must prioritise in this time. Bishop Fintan would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all those who engaged in the journey so far and to those who supported it with their prayer. The Bishop has written an initial response to what has emerged from the gatherings and invites us to read this
