RTE Broadcast Service for Week of Prayer for Christian Unity
This Sunday (January 19) at 11am, RTE will broadcast a service for the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity. This year, the service will be led by friends of Ecumenical Bible Week (EBW), a Dublin based ecumenical project.
The service will be led by the co–chairs of EBW, Fr Kieran O’Mahony who is a former ecumenical Canon of St Patrick’s Cathedral and Archdiocese of Dublin Academic Coordinator of Biblical Studies and the Revd Ken Rue, the chairman of Dublin & Glendalough Diocesan Council for Mission. Representatives of many Christian traditions will take part.
EBW has taken place in the greater Dublin area since 2014, bringing together a diversity of believers for prayer and reflection in June each year. Both Archbishops of Dublin have lent their personal and institutional support since the start. The topic for this year’s EBW, which runs from May 31 to June 7, is “Faith in the Public Square”.
