I love the situations when you discover that the Lord prepared for you something unexpected. Today’s event was one of that signs of God’s Providence.
I got an invitation to participate in the ceremony of professing perpetual vows in Bunclody, (Co.Carlow). The religious life in Ireland facing many difficulties, so was uplifting to see young women ready to commit themselves to the Lord.
That was a sign that the Holy Spirit doesn’t abandon the Church here in Ireland (as some people tend to think about our present situation).
On our way home we were talking a lot about the evangelization of young people here in Ireland. So pray for us, that we would be able to fan into flame the gifts of God we received in our baptism, confirmation and for some of us priestly ordination and preach the Gospel in the public places!.

Ballyhooly is a small village in County Cork. This is my first place where I have been sent to get some pastoral experience:)
