A good news story related to Irish Catholicism featured across mainstream news outlets this week as 21 Cameroonian women travelled to Ireland to give thanks to the Irish Holy Rosary Sisters who taught them decades ago in Our Lady of Lourdes Secondary School in Mankon Cameroon.

Graduating in 1986, the class came together from across the world to arrive at Dublin Airport. They were greeted by Sr Mary Neville, who will be 90 years old next month and worked as principal of the school from 1981 until 1985. The longtime graduates arrived from the UK, the United States, Cameroon, Norway and Switzerland.
