Bishop Cullinan visits Rome (exerpts from Waterford&Lismore Web pages)
Bishop Cullinan is now on a ten day visit to Rome called Ad Limina that takes place every ten years for the Irish Bishops. They will meet Pope Francis on Friday 20th January, but in the meantime, they will be discussing with various different agencies, what is happening in their various dioceses.
The Bishops arrived to Rome early last Saturday morning, and celebrated Mass in the Irish College. On Monday 16th January, Bishop Cullinan attended meetings at the Congregation for Consecrated Life. The afternoon saw a meeting at the Dicastery for laity and family life. Another meeting was held at Council for protection of Minors. Tuesday 17th January began with Prayer and Mass at 7.15am followed by a move to the Congregation of Bishops for a discussion about a long term strategy for evangelization in Ireland. Then on to the Congregation for Doctrine of the Faith with Cardinal Muller. In the afternoon a meeting was held with the council for new evangelization. There were lots of news ideas, and some are already in place in this Diocese e.g. Pilgrimages, 24 hours for the Lord, Lectio Divina, Workshops relating to Faith etc.
We pray for the success of this visit and send our prayers to Bishop Cullinan.
For what shall it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and suffer the loss of his soul?
Jesus Christ

Catholic Schools Week is an annual all-Ireland celebration which invites schools to give expression in an exceptional way to the ethos of Catholic education. It acknowledges the tremendous contribution that our Catholic primary and post-primary schools make, not just to Irish society, but to the mission of the Church.
This years theme, Catholic schools: Learning with Pope Francis to care for our common home has been informed by Laudato Si, the 2015 encyclical by Pope Francis on care for our common home.
As well as our regular 11am Mass goers, the liturgy for this years opening Mass for Catholic Schools Week will be enhanced by the participation of students from our local schools. Catholic Schools Week will take place from 29th January to 4th February.
