Bishop Paul in Presentation to Pope Leo XIV
60 pilgrims from the diocese of Ardagh & Clonmacnois accompanied by Bishop Paul Connell were part of a lovely gathering in Rome during the Jubilee Pilgrimage. He presented the pope with a watercolour of three Augustinian priories one in Scotland one in England and Kells priory in Kilkenny. This was a present from the 45 young primary teachers from the three countries who were in Rome in July on pilgrimage ‘Called to Teach’. By sheer mishap, it got lost in transit and this was the first opportunity to present it on their behalf by Bishop Connell last Wednesday (September 10th) . The Holy Father was delighted and asked him to pass on his thanks and blessing for the new school year
