Bishop Elect Terence has expressed a desire to get to know the diocesan family as soon as possible and to this end has chosen Lent to spend extended visits to the pastoral areas – this will enable him to visit some of the hospitals, schools and educational colleges, penal institutions, religious houses, civic and ecumenical Leaders, and hopefully will celebrate one of the pre-arranged Station Masses.
