The first episode of the Catholicism Series of Videos will be screened on Tuesday, 19th March at 7.45pm in Kinvara Pastoral Centre, beside St Joseph’s Church.
Episode 1: The Holy Land and the Story of Jesus
In the first episode of the Catholicism series, Fr Robert Barron (who has since become Auxiliary Bishop of Los Angeles) travels around the Holy Land tracing the story of Jesus as told in the Bible. Our Catholic faith is rooted in this story, the revelation of God become man. This first episode lasts 50 minutes. There is no charge. It will set the tone in terms of the beautiful filming of scenery, providing an inspiring backdrop to Fr Barron’s fine teaching on our faith.
This episode will be like a pilgrimage to the Holy Land for us as we visit the place of Jesus’ birth in Bethlehem, his public ministry around the Sea of Galilee, and his passion, death, Resurrection in Jerusalem, as well as other locations.

Address by Pope Francis at the end of the recent meeting about the protection of minors in the Church. (24th February 2019).
‘I make a heartfelt appeal for an all-out battle against the abuse of minors both sexually and in other areas, on the part of all authorities and individuals, for we are dealing with abominable crimes that must be erased from the face of the earth: this is demanded by all the many victims hidden in families and in the various settings of our societies.’
