On a recent Pilgrimage to Ireland, It was out great joy to be able to visit Skellig Michael, a great mountain island off the coast of County Kerry. It was once home to a community of monks, and is now a place of pilgrimage. We were able to get out to it, but the weather was too rough for the boat to land, so we saw it from the water.
The two Skelligs. Skellig Michael in the background was once home to about 12 monks, but now only the uninhabited Monastery remains as a sight of pilgrimage.

Fr. Michael Mary, F.SS.R. sung Mass in the parish Church of Ballybunion for some friends in Kerry
On the return journey, needing somewhere to say Mass, we went to our good friend Fr. Wadsworth in Bury.
Our five students were already there for the night before departing the next day for the seminary.
