GO MAKE DISCIPLES OF ALL NATIONS
by John Bradley and Cora Mc Nulty
The stories of 170 women & men of Ennis who left home to go make Disciples of all Nations will be told and celebrated at the launch of a specially commissioned book compiled by John Bradley and Cora Mc Nulty and published by Ennis Parish in association with Clare Roots Society.
These men and women came from families in our parish who nurtured and still support the call to service which so many generously answered all over the world and here at home in Ireland.
The book is compiled to recognise and to acknowledge the men and women of Ennis who planted the seed, laid the foundations but who knew at all times that they were just workers, not master builders, Ministers not Messiahs.
Ennis people has served as missionaries in the world's poorest countries, they have made an invaluable contribution to their adopted countries and left a legacy that others will harvest. On Thursday evening next at the 7.30pm Mass in the Cathedral celebrated by Bishop Fintan and concelebrated by many of our native sons, we will give thanks to God for the families that they were born into and the community of Ennis that reared and shaped them. After Mass the launch will take place in the Parish Centre and a welcome awaits all as we celebrate and salute the disciples who went to the end of the earth to proclaim the good news.
