May
Reality Special Vocations issue
Called to Serve
Last month saw the start of the Church’s Year of Vocation,
a special time to promote vocations to the priesthood and
religious life as well as to encourage those who wish to become
more involved in the church.
Triona Docherty examines the vocations shortage in the Irish
church and what is being done about it.
A Director’s Lot
Last year Fr Michael Cusack C.Ss.R. accepted the job as director
of vocations to the Irish Redemptorists. He explains why he
agreed to take it on.
Servant
of the Word
The role of the permanent deacon
The Catholic Chuch in Ireland plans to introduce permanent
deacons in the near future. But who are permanent deacons
and what do they do? Deacon Voncent Purcell gives the lowdown
on an ancient ministry that reminds all God’s people
of their responsibility to be servants of the world.
