RTÉ Christmas Broadcast now available
The annual Christmas broadcast message from the Archbishops of Armagh, the Most Revd Dr Richard Clarke, and the Most Revd Eamon Martin, is now available on the RTÉ Player website and app (in Android and iOS versions).
This year’s broadcast looks at our shared responsibility for our environment and climate. The Archbishops highlighted the Great Green Wall and Laudato Tree initiatives, to prevent desertification across 8,000 km (5,000 miles) in the Sahel, and encourage people in Ireland to plant trees here and sponsor the planting of more trees in this part of Africa. The initiative is improving food security, and creating jobs and a better quality of life in communities for millions of people who live along its path.
With thanks to RTÉ, the Catholic Communications Office, and the teachers and students of the Royal School Armagh, St Catherine’s College, Armagh, and St Paul’s High School, Bessbrook who contributed to the broadcast.
