So, Tell it to the Irish!

By Carole | July 12, 2008

So I was chatting with my dad the other night, who lives in America, and he mentioned that he had heard about a big initiative for evangelization that is being launched in the Archdiocese of Dublin.    What initiative, I wondered–since I live in Dublin, and have heard no such thing.  ‘It was in the paper,’ he replied, referring to the National Catholic Register, which he reads weekly.  I asked him to send me the article, and meanwhile, I started looking around Dublin for news of this initiative.  Nothing on the Diocesan website. Nothing in the Irish Catholic Newspaper.  Nothing on the Catholic Ireland website.  Nothing from the Catholic Communications office.  I was at Mass last weekend–they read a letter from the Bishop about the Peter’s Pence collection.

Anywyay, for what it’s worth, here it is.  It’s a good article–(his heart is in the right place, it seems–but ya gotta wonder about the method! ).  I know it is small, but hopefully your computer will let you enlarge it.

Just a wee suggestion on how this evangelization things works: If you want to evangelize the Irish, it might be good to mention it to the Irish.
