Madam, - Last weekend, in the absence of the parish priest, I was the priest-celebrant at all three Masses in the parish of Our Lady of Lourdes in Limerick. I saw nobody in church between the ages of 10 and 40 years.
There was a certain sadness in the fact that the "Mass intention" for the 10.30am Eucharist was: "For all our young people who were sitting their Leaving and Junior Certificate exams".
- Yours, etc,
Fr PATRICK SEAVER CC, Childers Road, Rosbrien, Limerick.
