Bishop-elect Anthony Ireland

Old Collegian, Reverend Monsignor Anthony Ireland, has been appointed an auxiliary bishop of Melbourne. He attended De La Salle College from 1969 - 1974 and served on the Old Collegians committee in the 1980s. In this article, he fondly reflects on his time at De La Salle:

‘The brothers always folded their arms when they prayed. And before doing the Sign of the Cross, they always began their prayer with, “Let us remember that we are in the holy presence of God”,’ he said. ‘That stayed with me for a long, long time. It still does. If I’m asked to lead prayer, I occasionally use that phrase.’
