A very memorable day here in St. Peter’s Square as I attended the Requiem Mass for Pope Francis, who is now laid to rest in Santa Maria Maggiore - may he enjoy the rest he richly deserves @KANDLEi @CatholicNewsIRL

On this Vocations Sunday I give thanks to God for the gift of priesthood. It has been the greatest and most challenging gift of my life but I wouldn’t change it #vocationssunday #taketheriskforchrist #catholic @BishopDNulty

My little book - An Irish Pilgrimage Guide to the Holy Land - brings the people and places in the Gospel to life. It might make a good Christmas stocking filler and is available now from columbabooks.com and all good bookstores.
