Voting took place across Ireland yesterday to decide who will become the next 9th President of Ireland. There are 7 candidates running, with a clear indication of the winner later on today. In Col√°iste Choilm students got the chance to do a mock vote and the experience was enjoyed by all. In the counting of the votes Sean Gallagher came 1st with Michael D Higgins coming 2nd! Saoirse Kelleher acted as the Presiding Officer.

Thought on Friday – October – 28/10/2011

A short prayer……..

May there peace within you today. May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you embrace endless possibilities that will always come your way. May you use the gifts that you have received and pass on the love given to you. May you be content knowing you are a child of God. May you feel unburdened, free and energised by a sense of God in your life. May you know that it’s ok not to have it all worked out and that God will also help you work it out too! May you treasure this day as a precious gift and be open to some surprise along the way. May you finish today with a sense of gratitude, knowing you have done your best and that no more is asked of you. Amen
