Fr. Ger Fitzgerald has decided to spend tonight outside as an act of solidarity with the poor across the county.
His sleep-out begins at the now boarded-up Fairways apartment block, and runs from midnight through to 7 o’clock tomorrow morning. He has encouraged people to join him for part of the night if they wish.
Fr. Fitzgearld says Pope Francis’ vision for a Church of the Poor has been his inspiration in taking this step.
