World Meeting of Families: Pope Francis has personally chosen Dublin to be the host diocese for the World Meeting of Families from 21^st to the 26^th of August 2018. Hosting this important event requires an enormous amount of planning and funding. In this regard, a second national collection will be held on the weekend of 1^st and 2^nd of April 2017. We will give what is over and above in the offertory collection to the National Fund.
