In midsummer 2018, with all eyes fixed on the impending visit of Pope Francis to the ‘World Meeting of Families‘ in August, we in ACI are paying close attention.  The gathering crisis of the Irish Church calls for a decisive break with a church culture that fears and prevents open, frank dialogue between priests and people.

Hoping for a different climate to follow, ACI will be very ready to host events to facilitate that.  If you have an idea for such an event in your locale, please let us know – at info@acireland.ie .  In the meantime let us all listen and watch – and pray for change.
