For many years Pilgrimages Abroad (JWT) have been the travel agent to Oblate Pilgrimage. It is with sincere regret that we learned that JWT has announced on April 27th that it is to cease trading due to the ongoing impact of the Coronavirus Pandemic. We understand that this is a difficult time for the directors...

Dear friends – we join Fr Paul once more for our morning prayer. In today’s very short gospel passage, the word, “love,” appears five times! There is so much to say about love. It is abundantly clear from the New Testament that love is all that matters – love of God and love of neighbour...

We join Fr Paul Horrocks OMI of the Inchicore Pastoral Area for morning prayer today. In today’s gospel, Jesus tells us that he is the vinedresser and he is pruning the branches, us. “Pruning” is very much about letting go. When we have to let go it can seem as though we are losing ourselves....

We join Gerard Bennett for prayer on the 5th Monday of Easter. Many of us may be waiting with impatient hope for the future, as we contemplate what changes for the better might we be living with as we navigate the “new normal”? We ponder the words of pope Francis –  ‘Could Covid 19 could...

Let us join in morning prayer this morning with Fr Tom Devereux OMI in Kilburn London. We see Jesus in prayer to the father, or in conversation, father to the son, just like a child speaking to their parents. Jesus is not wanting us to be learned and clever but rather wants us to be...

We join Gerard Bennett in Westmeath for morning prayer. Light is central to the Easter liturgy and in today’s gospel we hear about light and the Word. We might ask ourselves, “Do I choose light or dark – do I choose to follow the light and listen to and respond to the word of God...

Join us for Morning Prayer with Christine in Holyhead. Ever living God, we praise you for giving us new life in Jesus your Son and for bringing us together this day. Attune our minds to the sound of his voice, Lead our steps in the path we have shown, that we may know the strength...
