Orlagh-in-the-City community has recently returned to the St. Benildus Pastoral Centre in Kilmacud for Sunday Mass. This will give us the opportunity to host the climate justice candle and raise awareness of climate justice issues. Our Spring visit to An Tairseach Ecology Centre presents us with a challenge in terms of sustainable transport options from Dublin to Wicklow town. What combination of single occupancy cars, car sharing or public transport to use? The choice may be more difficult because of recently rising Covid levels.

The book club has just begun reading John Feehan’s Every Bush Aflame: Science, God and the Natural World. The book considers how advances in scientific enquiry, especially with reference to the natural environment, deepen our understanding of the relationship between science and religion.
