School retreat takes to the road
As part of their annual retreat, a group of Clongowes fifth-years went to visit some Jesuit apostolates around Dublin. They visited the JUST Ballymun project and the Jesuit Refugee Service. Afterwards they went to learn about the various operations that call Leeson Street their home: the Messenger, Sacred Space, the Jesuit Communication Centre, and Religious News Network (RNN) – so they received a thorough introduction to the work being done both in traditional and in new media. Feedback was very positive, and the students commented that it was an eye-opener for them to see faith so obviously in action.
