The generosity of these young men in offering their lives for the service of God’s people is a great encouragement for people of faith. I invite the people of the Diocese to join me in welcoming Ger Jones to the ministry of the priesthood and to pray for him as he begins his mission in the Diocese of Killaloe.”
