Welcome – Ceád Míle Fáilte
The primary task of religious life is to live and spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the men and women who are members of religious orders do this through a vast variety of ways- prayer,education, medicine, social work, development work, counseling, pastoral care, media, ecology, art and culture, farming etc. They work not only in Ireland but also all over the world.
Whatever you want to do in your life you can do as a religious. The opportunities are many, the challenge is great and the commitment is total.
Two thousand years ago Jesus Christ said to those who were thinking of following him to “Come and see…” We are here to repeat that same invitation
Many thanks,
Margaret
