We have updated our Youtube channel with a series of thought-provoking talks from our nine-day National Novena to Our Lady of Knock, which ran from August 14 to 22, 2015.
Speakers include Joan Freeman, the founder of suicide and self-harm prevention charity, Pieta House; Mayo poet and founder of Poetry Ireland, John F Deane; UN special envoy on migration, Peter Sutherland; Archbishop of Tuam Michael Neary; and Dr Dan O’Connell, lecturer in religious studies at the University of Limerick.
The theme of the Novena was ‘Faith & Family’.
The talks were filmed during the daily ceremonies in Our Lady’s Basilica, Knock Shrine, Ireland.
