To paraphrase Thucydides, the people make the diocese, not the buildings alone. With this in mind a video series called “People and Places” is launching today, Monday 23rd August. It focuses on the many different aspects of church life in the Diocese of Cork, Cloyne and Ross. 

The series will journey across the diocese and capture the diversity of roles and activities that take place. The aim is to visualise the network that is the Church of Ireland in Cork, Cloyne and Ross and how the people are at the very centre of this network. The connection of people to their local and wider communities, as well as to the many different places and buildings in the diocese will also be a central aspect of the series. 

The videos are posted on Mondays and can be viewed on the Church of Ireland in Cork, Cloyne and Ross YouTube channel as well as on Facebook.

The first video of the series is about the newly built Carraig Centre in Carrigrohane Union and the Rev. Robert Ferris’s work there within the local community.
