Vocations Ireland out and about
A busy weekend for AMRI and Vocations Ireland members and staff. Thursday to Sunday we were with Youth 2000 Ireland in Newbridge. Nine different congregations were present over the 4 days and were warmly welcomed by Youth 2000 staff, volunteers and the young people. Great conversations, prayer time and fun.
On Sunday our Carmelite friends were also at the Tullamore Show.
We will be at some more events in the coming weeks and months so keep an eye out for our members spreading the joy of Religious Life and offering those present the opportunity to chat, ask questions and ask for prayers.
