“That’s what girls have to think about all the time.” *small moment of awkwardness* “Am I right, ladies?” *applause* Well done for saying it, Saoirse Ronan. End Violence Against Women & Girls💜 #EndVAWG #GrahamNortonShow #BBC

‘a mine of inspiration for preachers of every Christian tradition...powerful mediations... a rich resource of spiritual insight’ We're delighted with the review of #TheDeepEnd Gospel reflections by @TrionaD and @Janemellett in The Preacher. Check it out: https://t.co/GirMdRhZsc

Charlie Bird, who died today, reported on many humanitarian disasters during a long career with @RTEnews, including Somalia, Rwanda & Haiti. He was courageous and tireless. We extend our condolences to his family & friends on the passing of a remarkable journalist. #CharlieBird

@TrionaD and @Janemellett have a new guide to the gospel of Mark, the gospel for this liturgical year, published by Messenger Publications. https://t.co/C5riPPU496 #gospelofmark #gospels

Word of Christmas Day, as always, is ‘confelicity’: joy in the happiness of others. The fellow emotion to ‘compassion’, literally ‘a suffering with’. Wishing you confelicity aplenty this Christmas.

Always a pleasure to chat to @MonicaMorley of @radiomidwest #TheDeepEnd @Janemellett @MgrPublications

As the temperatures have dropped this week, we decided that our soup run needed to be back on the streets. Despite last week's episode, we kept thinking of our service users and how much they rely on us. Of course we were very nervous going in tonight but we have been liaising

Thanks to all who helped us to celebrate #TheDeepEnd Mark last night @StPatsMaynooth particularly @MgrPublications for their constant support, Rev. Trevor Sargent for launching & all those who have made this series of books possible through their support & friendship.

Join @Janemellett & @TrionaD next Tuesday 28 Nov in @StPatsMaynooth to celebrate publication of the 3rd in their series of Gospel reflections. 'The Deep End:Mark' will be launched by special guest @RevTrev10. With music & refreshments, it will be a great evening. ALL WELCOME!

Apricate (17th century): to turn your face to the winter sun and bask in it for a moment. (I know, I’ve said it before, but it’s too beautiful to forget.)

Most welcome to join us for this special event @StPatsMaynooth Tuesday 28th Nov 7pm, for the launch of #TheDeepEnd Mark. Delighted that @RevTrev10 can launch this final instalment of Gospel reflections, which we hope are nourishing & relevant for the challenges of today's world.

All are very welcome to join @Janemellett and me to celebrate the launch of #TheDeepEnd in Maynooth on November 28th @MgrPublications

Beautiful #RIPSinead

Thank you Sinéad. For your fearless voice and courageous light. You truly challenged an Ireland, and a world, that stifled women, children and anyone who didn't conform. Your power, your anger, your pain and fragility gave strength to many survivors to speak out. 💜

Celebrating #IWD2023, the @MgrPublications focus today is on our female authors: their insights, passion for their chosen topic, wisdom & fresh perspectives We are proud to be one of the leading religious publishers of female pastoral writers & theologians in Ireland(1/7)

I already have great support from all over the country to lighting a candle on anniversary of climbwithcharlie. But really would love more charities and organisations to support the idea. My own health has got much worse but while I can I want to extend the hand of friendship.

Word of the day is a reminder of ‘sparple’ (14th century): to deflect attention from one thing by making a big deal of something else entirely.

Here here! @MgrPublications @Janemellett

Apparently this was going on just up the road the year I was born #nobber #meath #oldireland
