"The Catholic Church in Ireland which has – in the course of its history and in the spiritual footsteps of its great missionary "Father in the Faith" and in nationhood, St. Patrick – taken the message of Pentecost to heart and zealously spread the Good News of salvation at home and abroad. The Church in Ireland, which counts among its sons and daughters an abundant blossoming of saints – some of whom have paid the ultimate price for their fidelity to Christ."
