Word of Christmas Day, as always, is
‘confelicity’: joy in the happiness of others.
The fellow emotion to ‘compassion’, literally ‘a suffering with’.
Wishing you confelicity aplenty this Christmas.
Delighted to see the latest edition of ‘The Deep End’, focussing on St Mark, has been published. Will be talking to @TrionaD about it this Sunday on @radiomidwest at 9am. @MgrPublications@Janemellett
As the temperatures have dropped this week, we decided that our soup run needed to be back on the streets. Despite last week's episode, we kept thinking of our service users and how much they rely on us.
Of course we were very nervous going in tonight but we have been liaising with the Guards and they checked in a couple of times during the night.
Everybody was so happy to see us back, glad that the soup run was there and by our presence we wanted to demonstrate caring and empathy towards the homeless.
We are very blessed and as long as the soup run will be required, we hope we will continue to be present and serve without stopping or pausing to help those in need. We don't want to be in a position such as last week, because in the end, they are the ones who suffer from the outcome.
Our prayers are with all the children and families who are affected from the horrific attacks of last Thursday on young children and their carers.
We are constantly thinking of them, hoping and praying for health and blessings to be upon them all.
As you can imagine it was an extremely busy night, we handed over 480 hot meals and provided lots of sleeping bags and tents.
We could not have continued our work without your constant support. If you would like to donate, please click on the link below. Thank you.

Apricate (17th century): to turn your face to the winter sun and bask in it for a moment.
(I know, I’ve said it before, but it’s too beautiful to forget.)
Most welcome to join us for this special event @StPatsMaynooth Tuesday 28th Nov 7pm, for the launch of #TheDeepEnd Mark. Delighted that @RevTrev10 can launch this final instalment of Gospel reflections, which we hope are nourishing & relevant for the challenges of today's world.
Celebrating #IWD2023, the @MgrPublications focus today is on our female authors: their insights, passion for their chosen topic, wisdom & fresh perspectives We are proud to be one of the leading religious publishers of female pastoral writers & theologians in Ireland(1/7)
I already have great support from all over the country to lighting a candle on anniversary of climbwithcharlie. But really would love more charities and organisations to support the idea. My own health has got much worse but while I can I want to extend the hand of friendship.
On this Nollaig na mBan we at @MgrPublications pay tribute to our growing band of female authors. We’re delighted that their numbers are increasing each year & we value the wisdom & fresh perspectives that these female pastoral writers & theologians bring to our books catalogue.
