THE PRACTICE OF SILENCE AND STILLNESS – EXPLORING CONTEMPLATIVE PRAYER

MEDITATIVE PRAYER

Come to Meditative Prayer following the practice of “Divine Reading” known as Lectio Divina.  The first stage is “lectio” (reading) where we read the Word of God, slowly and reflectively so that it sinks into us.

This is a wonderful opportunity to bring the Word of God alive within us. Thursdays 7.30 pm at Gardiner Street Church.

WORLD YOUTH DAY – LISBON 2023

Parishes and Individuals are now invited to register their interest in either attending WYD Lisbon or organising a parish group to participate. Over the past year many parishes and people have noted in submissions for the Task Force and also preparatory meetings on Synod the importance of reaching out to younger people.

World Youth Day will take place August 1 to 6 in Lisbon 2023. Package options and costs are still being determined and the registration system will open in September. At present it is intended to have the option for teenagers aged 16-18 to participate as well as those aged 18-29.

The Archdiocese of Dublin has a great tradition in participation at World Youth Day. This is a great opportunity to reach out to young people and connect them to young people in many parishes that will participate at WYD. A full pastoral programme for all pilgrims will also commence later in the year, with opportunities for leadership roles as well.
