Welcome

 

Welcome to the website of the Diocese of Armagh.

It is a very ancient diocese with historical links back to the time of St Patrick.

It is a cross-border diocese with part in Northern Ireland and part in the Republic of Ireland,

As you browse through our website we hope you will get a flavour of church life in this part of Ireland.

Please come back and visit us often.

Yours in Christ

Prayer
Living Lord, ignite in us a passion for justice and a yearning to right all wrong.
Strengthen us to work for peace on the land we call holy;
For peace among Jew, Christian and Muslim
For reconciliation between communities
For harmony between faiths.
Inspire us to act with the urgency of your quickening fire,
for blessed are the peacemakers,
they shall be called children of God.
Amen
