Catholic Schools Week 2026 runs from 18th to 24th January with the theme, “Normal Lives, Called to Holiness”. Inspired by Pope Francis’ reflection on Blessed Carlo Acutis, the 2026 theme invites pupils, teachers, families, and parishes to explore the call to holiness as something both universal and accessible. Holiness is not for a few, but for all; not reserved for professionals or mystics, but for every student, teacher, parent, (and grandparent!), aunt or uncle living each day in friendship with Jesus Christ.

More information at www.clogherdiocese.ie/lourdes2024 TheWay.ie is a new digital platform set up by the Irish Bishops Conference dedicated to sharing the “Good News” and the witness of the Catholic Church in Ireland. It is intended to help people discover the faith, live the faith, and pass on the faith. It is for both seekers and followers. Thought for the Day God alone can give faith, but you can offer witness. God alone can give hope, but you can give confidence to others. God alone can give love, but you can pass it on to others. God alone can give peace, but you can work for unity. God alone can give power, but you can sustain somebody who is feeling low. God alone is the light, but you can make it shine for others. God alone is life, but you can give others a taste for living. God alone can do the impossible, but through you it becomes possible. God alone is self-sufficient...but amazingly, God prefers to count on you. By Silvester O’Flynn OFM Cap
