Published: January 25, 2022

On Thursday 20th January, Bishop Donal McKeown celebrated Mass in Saint Eugene’s Cathedral to launch Catholic Schools Week in the Diocese of Derry. Pupils from schools in the Parish of Templemore (Saint Eugene’s Cathedral and Saint Columba’s, Long Tower) represented the Diocesan School Community and many more schools joined online. Bishop McKeown encouraged young people to believe that,  “Jesus wants you all to flourish and your schools have great power to help that.” Read the full text of his homily here.
