Local bishops have highlighted the importance of solidarity this festive season.
In their joint Christmas message, Bishops of Clogher Larry Duffy and the right Rev Dr Ian Ellis said we must all journey together as we face the challenges and restrictions of the Covid-19 pandemic.
They said the virus has shown our vulnerability and fragility and we must ensure that this does not foster divisions among each other.
They added that in times of trial and fear, future possibilities must be explored as people seek hope-filled and inspired leadership.
We must all strive, the bishops' said to erase the division between those who have and those who have not, between people of different nations and faiths, between different political outlooks.
