Community & Spiritual Connection 1/8 Pilgrims of hope The Catholic Church will celebrate the Jubilee Year 2025 under the theme “Pilgrims of Hope” , a special time of grace, renewal, and spiritual growth. Beginning on Christmas Eve 2024 with the opening of the Holy Door at St. Peter’s Basilica, the Jubilee invites all faithful to embark on a journey of faith, reconciliation, and hope. Throughout the year, we are encouraged to deepen our relationship with Christ through prayer, sacraments, acts of charity, and pilgrimage. Let us embrace this opportunity to strengthen our faith and become true “pilgrims of hope” in our community and the world.

The views from the peak are a reminder of life’s vastness and the opportunities that lie beyond the horizon, waiting for us to take that leap of chance. Good health became more than a wish; it felt like a responsibility—to care for ourselves, for one another, and for the Earth that holds us all. And as the wind carried prayers whispered by generations before, it felt like a collective yearning for peace on Earth, a dream we still hold dear, no matter how distant it may sometimes seem. May the year ahead be as grounding and uplifting as the Reek itself. Read More Fr John Kenny 1 January 2025 0:30 p.m. On Wednesday January 1st 2025.

It is said to be the mountain which St. Patrick himself climbed up, and pilgrims have been hiking up its hillside ever since. Those who are feeling especially penitential will climb the mountain barefoot, and apparently we had a contrite batch of students, as at least a third of the group climbed up the hill sans footwear. In all seriousness, it was beautiful to watch them experience the physical and spiritual journey of the mountain. We made frequent stops for short reflections and prayers, and each time we paused, we were reminded of how blessed we are to live on this beautiful Earth.

< Back Westport Educate Together Westport Educate Together National School Westport Educate Together is a new primary school in Westport, Co. Mayo. We opened in 2019 with our first Junior Infants Class. We are currently located at Westport Woods, The Quay, Westport, Co. Mayo, F28 E6N4. As an Educate Together School, we are equality based, child-centred, democratically run and co-educational. Like any many other schools in Ireland, Educate Together schools are state-funded and teach the National Curriculum. They are non-fee-paying schools and are open to students of all backgrounds. They are co-educational and have no school uniforms. But they are much more than that: Educate Together schools work hard to instil a sense of equality and justice in students. They embrace the input of parents, students, staff and the wider community to improve the school in every way possible. They are committed to enabling students to achieve their full potential. All students are encouraged to explore their full range of abilities and are provided with equal opportunities regardless of their identity. Educate Together schools put students at the heart of all policies and practices. All children have equal access to school and no one religion or worldview is given priority over another in Educate Together schools.
