ACI Zoom with Diarmuid Ó Murchú – Thurs June 13th @ 8.00pm

Association of Catholics in Ireland (ACI) will host Adult Faith Development for the 21st Century

Diarmuid O’Murchú

ZOOM – Thu June 13th – 8.00 pm

Although formal religion seems to be declining around the world, there is a notable increase in people seeking out more adult forms of faith and spirituality, both within and outside traditional settings. 

At the same time the Irish national synodal synthesis of 2022 reported a widespread lament for an absence of adult faith formation to help bridge a generational divide

“…there is a crisis in transmission of faith … we are unsure about how to evangelise in the modern world…” 

ACI is delighted to welcome an internationally known teacher to add to our series on a topic critical to the future of the church in Ireland.

Diarmuid O’Murchú, a member of the Sacred Heart Missionary Order, and a graduate of Trinity College, Dublin Ireland, is a social psychologist whose early working life had been in social ministry, predominantly in London, UK. In more recent years he has worked as a workshop leader and group facilitator, conducting programmes on Adult Faith Development across several countries. He is a widely read author, with many of his books listed on his webpage. Now as a retired missionary, he lives in Dublin, Ireland.

Addressing Maynooth

Brendan Hoban like many priests spent a good part of today, Friday, visiting the elderly and sick in his parish and found there’s a lot of upset out there among people about the allegations that have been made against Maynooth Seminary.
Many priests will be considering if they should address this issue at weekend Masses. Brendan offers some thoughts that might provide a bit of clarity on the background as so many are confused; it might encourage priests to address it.
