Pope Francis released a message today for the 59th World Day of Prayer for Vocations, on 8th May - Good Shepherd Sunday - on the theme 'Called to Build the Human Family.'
In his Message the Holy Father encourages every person in the Church to give the very best of themselves "in this great divine plan!" He says: "when we speak about vocations, we are speaking about making God's dream come true."

Take away for dinner tonight!

Good Morning have a great day.
Nollaig na mBan. That’s the Irish name given to Women’s Little Christmas on January 6 — the feast of Nollaig na mBan.
It’s the traditional end of the Christmas season, the day we take down the Christmas tree and pack the baubles and tinsel into the attic for another year. But most importantly, it’s the day when the women of Ireland get to have time off from household chores after all the festive cooking.
A special day to get together with friends, sisters, mothers, and aunts. The men cheerfully take over the household for the day, so the women can gather together to party and have a glass of fizz.
Many other countries have a similar tradition, although the date sometimes varies.
The Nordic countries have many customs, as have Ukraine, Slovenia, Galicia, and closer to home there are high jinks and céilís in the Scottish Highlands, where it’s called Là Féill nan Rìgh, The Feast of the Kings in Gaelic.
La Fête des Rois is also celebrated in France with the delicious Galette des Rois as the centrepiece of the table.
Every boulangére offers their version of the flaky pastry galette, with a little trinket known as a ‘fève’ hidden deep inside the marzipan filling.
Wherever you are in the world today lets offer an extra prayer, some words of gratitude and hopefully a rest from the chores. As we celebrate the wonderful women in our lives.
