They mission team spoke about the mission plans as they visit parishes and schools, the visit of the relics of St Carlo Acutis and the 100 Hours of Eucharistic Adoration.
They also encouraged parishioners to respond to Bishop Fintan’s invitation to join the whole diocese for the 100th Anniversary of the Eucharistic Procession on Sunday 7th June, leaving the Cathedral at 3pm.
On Saturday morning, the missionaries visited the Poor Clares. They joined the Sisters for Mass and prayed a holy hour together before having the opportunity to meet the sisters and share about the mission plans in preparation for the Eucharistic Procession. The sisters also shared their vocation stories and offered some beautiful advice to our young missionaries.
