ONE Dublin on RTÉ Radio One
This Friday (16th November) members of the planning team for ‘ONE Dublin’ – Student Gospel Music Services, will feature on RTÉ Radio One’s ‘The Leap of Faith’ programme at 10.00pm.
The Services, which are an initiative of ACT 3 (Anglican Chaplaincy Team at Third Level), were successfully launched on Sunday 21st October in St Thomas’s Church on Cathal Brugha Street, Dublin 1. Since then, there has been growing interest across a variety of sectors, in the pioneering ministry of ‘ONE Dublin’.
Friday’s radio interview will feature DCU Church of Ireland Chaplain Philip McKinley and University Students, Matthew Hewston and Nzuzi Malanda, who have been part of the planning for ONE Dublin Services. The programme will explore the background and purpose of ‘ONE Dublin’, as well as wider issues regarding the relationship between Christian faith, University life and contemporary society.
RTÉ Radio One’s ‘The Leap of Faith’ is a thought–provoking, half–hour programme which features a wide variety of people, “whose life experiences cause them to call on their beliefs”. Presenter Michael Comyn says that the late evening show, “seeks to discover what religion does for people – and occasionally to them”.
The next ‘ONE Dublin’ – Student Gospel Music Service takes place on Sunday 18th November at 7.30pm in St Thomas’ Church. The theme is ‘Remembrance’ and the preacher will be UCD Church of Ireland Chaplain Scott Evans.
Music will be provided by Gospel Musicians Rilwon Jaiyeola and Rebirth.For further details of ‘ONE Dublin’, see ‘WeAreOneDublin’ on Facebook and Instagram and for updates and podcasts of ‘The Leap of Faith’, see the RTE Website – www.rte.ie.
