Message
from Bishop Francis Duffy re Marriage Referendum
“Married
love is a unique form of love between a man and a woman which has a special
benefit for society. The word ‘unique’ is an attractive word because it means
there is something special and impressive about it; what is unique should be
cared for and protected. Uniqueness is
not about equality but about valuing what is distinct and different;
distinguishing does not mean discriminating. Not many are saying ‘no’ publicly
and those that are, risk being ridiculed.
Fear of social disapproval can lend itself to poor decision making. It is important to reflect deeply on this
issue and vote for what you consider the best option. After the referendum the Church continues to
support all people and families with its message of the Good News of Jesus
Christ.”

Congratulations & best wishes to
Darran Finnerty and Siobhán Kiernan, who
were married on Thurs in Rochfortbridge.
Ad multos annos!

again, for it has a God who knows his way out of the grave.’ (G.K. Chesterton)
