Africa, St Patrick's Missions 
May/June 2025, Vol. 90 No. 4

The May/June edition of Africa is out now!

 

In this issue there are a wide array of articles, and I hope you enjoy them.

 

The Hare’s Corner series, by Anne Cowley continues with a very informative article on the tremendous harm done to the environment by plastic.

​

Fr Dermot Connolly recounts the history of the favourite prayer of many Catholics: the Hail Mary.

 

Maeve Edwards writes about the fleeting beauty of the cherry blossom which has inspired poets since the beginning of time.

 

A young Malawian man called Father Msowoya tells his own story. He spent three years in prison for a crime he did not commit, before receiving a Presidential Pardon in 2023. He is now an undergraduate at the Malawi University of Business thanks to the support of generous benefactors in Ireland.

 

Education and life are intertwined. Education brings people together and changes lives. You, our readers and subscribers are also changing lives. With your support, St Patrick’s missionaries are able to bring education to those who may not have access to it otherwise.

 

We are truly grateful for your continued support. Happy reading!​
