Excellent opinion piece by @BishopDNulty reminding us all of the significance of Columbanus for us today.
As Europe risks fracturing, the message of St Columbanus needs to be heard again irishtimes.com/opinion/2025/…

A very moving moment as the Relic of St. Columbanus is received into the parish of Myshall, beginning with an ecumenical liturgy in the Adelaide Church, concluding in the Church of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross with @AWilkinson267 and a capacity congregation @KANDLEi @CatholicNewsIRL

Very interesting lecture and fascinating to hear about the religious and diplomatic links across what is now Europe in the late seventh century.
A wonderful evening in St. Laserian’s Cathedral as Dr. Immo Warntjes from Dept. of History in @tcddublin delivered the Biennial St. Willibrord Public Lecture on ‘Rath Melsigi and Politics in the late seventh century in the time St. Willibrord was here’ @KANDLEi @CarlowCountyMus @AWilkinson267
With the Mayor of Kilkenny Cllr Andrew McGuinness following the Civic Service in St Canice’s Cathedral today to mark the 700th anniversary of the witch trials in Kilkenny. An opportunity to reflect.
Today, at a service in St Carthage’s Cathedral in Lismore, I licensed and commissioned Ross Barrett for pioneer ministry in that parish. I wish him every blessing as he starts the training course under @robdjones which will guide and support him in this work. @CofIcfo

Delighted to be invited with as a guest at the @churchofireland Synod for Cashel, Ferns & Ossory in @dolmenhotel, thanks to @AWilkinson267 for the very warm welcome @KANDLEi @CatholicNewsIRL
Heading home to Kilkenny from Enniskillen where I preached at the Harvest Thanksgiving Service in St Macartin’s Cathedral this morning.
The clergy of @CofIcfo taking a break during the second day of their conference in Dungarvan. Thanks to Bishop Ian Ellis for his inspiring series of talks on the theme of wisdom in ministry, vision, learning and change.
It was great to have some of the choir from @SFB_Cork with us in St Paul’s Church, Cahir for harvest thanksgiving last night. At the service the recently restored organ, as well as hymnals and prayer books, were dedicated as memorial gifts. A full church with wonderful music.
This morning I was at St John’s Church in Moyne, Co Wicklow to rededicate the church after considerable refurbishment. It was a lovely occasion as the congregation also made a presentation to Muriel Hobson marking her 40 years of service as a parish reader. @CofIcfo
We thank Rebecca for all she has done as today she finishes working in the @CofIcfo Diocesan Office. We wish her well in her career as she takes on additional responsibilities in her other job.
