On behalf of Bishop Alan, could we thank everyone who attended or who tuned into the celebration of mass in Saint Patrick’s on the 7th March 2025 for Victims and Survivors of Abuse within our Church.
This is such a central event as we move into the season of Lent.
I also want to thank our Parishes who brought this day of prayer across our Dioceses
At all times, we must keep our people and their families who have suffered within our church, in our thoughts and prayers on their journey of healing.
Also, a thank you to Father Eugene O’Neill and his team in Saint Patrick’s, for embracing this service of prayer and atonement.
