The Priests

Yesterday evening saw well over 500 young people coming to "Theology on Tap" in Parramatta to meet and hear "The Priests". These three Northern Irish priests, escaping from their parishes for an opportunity to come "down under", raised the roof with their singing and the applause which followed. Most interesting of all were their answers to questions about how they managed to hold together humble priesthood and international stardom. Meanwhile, upstairs in the Pub, other priests, including myself, were hearing the Confessions of young people. "Theology on Tap" is beoming even more an evangelising environment. Thanks go primarily to Patrick and his team who set this venue up and organise it every first Monday of the month.
