Presentation of Why The Church On 12th
May 2004 more than 250 people gathered together in the prestigious setting of
Trinity College Dublin for a meeting to mark the launch of the English
edition of “Why the Church” in Ireland. Among the audience were ambassadors,
the Apostolic Nuncio, members of the clergy and many lay people from all
walks of life in Ireland. The meeting was chaired by Margaret Biondi, representing Communion
and Liberation in Ireland. The first of the speakers was Alberto Savorana,
editor of Traces magazine.
He was followed by a Protestant Minister and Professor of
Theology. The final speaker was the Archbishop of Dublin, the Most Reverend Diarmuid Martin, making one of his first public appearances as Archbishop. The meeting lasted for almost 2 hours with the audience having the
opportunity to ask questions at the end. We present here the interventions of
two of the speakers and a report from Traces Magazine.
