C&SI - News Magazine - 28 Jan 2024 (S04E10)

On this weeks podcast we have a news magazine programme where John and Shane take a spin around the world for little bits and pieces that caught our eye.

Links to the topics raised:

• Pope to open ‘school of prayer’ in preparation for 2025 Jubilee
• Irish Church says new medical guide is paving the way for euthanasia
• Why a papal trip to Vietnam is now possible
• Belgian Church fights order to erase baptismal entry
• Bishop Álvarez freed in Nicaragua, exiled to Vatican

We have our regular run through the liturgical odds and ends for the coming week which includes St Bridget's Day, Candlemas and St Blaise as here in Ireland we mark the official start of Spring (per calendar - outside the weather doesn't always agree!).

In addition we have some up coming events around St Bridget's Day at the FCJ House of Spirituality which we gave a plug to:

• Clóca Bríd – A story sharing afternoon with Maria Gillen - 4th Feb
• Anois teach an Earraigh with Deirdre Ni Chinneide - 9 Feb - 11 Feb
